Esther 5:13 אֶסְתֵּר

Who acts: this, I, Mordecai · What happens: avail, see, sit · To what, where: nothing, me, Mordecai, gate

This is Esther 5:13 from Mova's open Bible corpus, the Tanakh in three languages (Ketuvim — the Writings). The page gives the verse in Hebrew as the Westminster Leningrad Codex has it, its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies, built from MACULA Hebrew — and its pragmatics: who acts — this, I, Mordecai — and what happens in the verse to nothing, me, Mordecai, gate, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the Aramaic of the Targum and the English of the Jewish Publication Society's 1917 translation, each English sentence with a tree of its own. It is one of the 10 chapters of Esther on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

וְכָל־זֶ֕ה אֵינֶ֥נּוּ שֹׁוֶ֖ה לִ֑י בְּכָל־עֵ֗ת אֲשֶׁ֨ר אֲנִ֤י רֹאֶה֙ אֶת־מָרְדֳּכַ֣י הַיְּהוּדִ֔י יוֹשֵׁ֖ב בְּשַׁ֥עַר הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃

Yet all this availeth me nothing, so long as I see Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king's gate.'

The tree

Right to left, as the Hebrew is read; a prefix or suffix is a word of its own, and a line under the words joins those written as one. Under each word its part of speech and MACULA's English gloss.

Pragmatics

form: statement
act: assert
voice: character
speech: inside a quote begun earlier
negation: yes

verb	form · stem	who (A0)	what, whom (A1)
not שֹׁוֶה [is] adequate	participle active · qal	ֶנּוּ it
רֹאֶה [am] seeing	participle active · qal	אֲנִי I	יוֹשֵׁב sitting
יוֹשֵׁב sitting	participle active · qal	מָרְדֳּכַי Mordecai

MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant. A0 is the one who acts, A1 what the act is done to or is about, A2 a further participant; AA, with a causative verb, the one who makes it happen.

The Targum

וְכָל דָא לֵיתֵיהּ טִימֵי לְוָתִי בְּכָל עִדָן דִי אֲנָא חֲזֵי יַת מָרְדְכַי יְהוּדָאָה דְיָתֵיב בְּסַנְהֶדְרִין עִם עוּלֵימַיָא בִּתְרַע פַּלְטְרִין דְמַלְכָּא:

Each sentence on its own page, with its tree and pragmatics. A sentence that runs on into the next verse is listed under the verse it begins in.
