Esther 9:16 אֶסְתֵּר
Who acts: other Jews, Jews · What happens: be, gather, stand, have, slew, hate · To what, where: provinces, Jews, rest, enemies, seventy thousand, hand
This is Esther 9:16 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 — other Jews, Jews — and what happens in the verse to provinces, Jews, rest, enemies, seventy thousand, hand, 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.
וּשְׁאָ֣ר הַיְּהוּדִ֡ים אֲשֶׁר֩ בִּמְדִינ֨וֹת הַמֶּ֜לֶךְ נִקְהֲל֣וּ ׀ וְעָמֹ֣ד עַל־נַפְשָׁ֗ם וְנ֙וֹחַ֙ מֵאֹ֣יְבֵיהֶ֔ם וְהָרֹג֙ בְּשֹׂ֣נְאֵיהֶ֔ם חֲמִשָּׁ֥ה וְשִׁבְעִ֖ים אָ֑לֶף וּבַ֨בִּזָּ֔ה לֹ֥א שָֽׁלְח֖וּ אֶת־יָדָֽם׃
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.

The Targum
וּשְׁאַר יְהוּדָאִין דִי בְּפִלְכֵי דְמַלְכָּא אִתְכְּנָשׁוּ וְקַיְמוּ יַת נַפְשֵׁיהוֹן וְאַשְׁכָּחוּ נְיָחָא מִבַּעֲלֵי דְבָבֵיהוֹן וּקְטָלוּ בְּסַנְאֵיהוֹן שַׁבְעִין וְחַמְשָׁא אַלְפִין מִדְבֵית עֲמָלֵק וּבְעַדָאָה לָא אוֹשִׁיטוּ יַת יְדֵיהוֹן:
