Esther 9:27 אֶסְתֵּר

Who acts: Jews, seed · What happens: ordain, take, join, not fail, keep, accord · To what, where: Jews

This is Esther 9:27 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 — Jews, seed — and what happens in the verse to Jews, 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.

קִיְּמ֣וּ וְקִבְּל֣וּהַיְּהוּדִים֩ ׀ עֲלֵיהֶ֨ם ׀ וְעַל־זַרְעָ֜ם וְעַ֨ל כָּל־הַנִּלְוִ֤ים עֲלֵיהֶם֙ וְלֹ֣א יַעֲב֔וֹר לִהְי֣וֹת עֹשִׂ֗ים אֵ֣ת שְׁנֵ֤י הַיָּמִים֙ הָאֵ֔לֶּה כִּכְתָבָ֖ם וְכִזְמַנָּ֑ם בְּכָל־שָׁנָ֖ה וְשָׁנָֽה׃

the Jews ordained, and took upon them, and upon their seed, and upon all such as joined themselves unto them, so as it should not fail, that they would keep these two days according to the writing thereof, and according to the appointed time thereof, every year;

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.

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

קַיְמוּ וְקַבִּילוּ יְהוּדָאִין קַיָמָא עֲלַוֵיהוֹן וַעֲלַוֵי בְנֵיהוֹן וַעֲלַוֵי כָּל דַיָרֵי דְמִתּוֹסְפִין עֲלֵיהוֹן וְלָא יֶעְבַר קְיָמָא דִי יְהוֹן עָבְדִין יַת תְּרֵין יוֹמַיָא הָאִלֵין לְמִקְרֵי יַת מְגִלְתָּא בְּמִכְתַּב רוֹשָׁם עִבְרָאֵי בְּבֵית כְּנִישַׁתְהוֹן בְּחַד עֲסַר וּתְרֵי עֲסַר וּתְלַת עֲסַר וְאַרְבַּע עֲסַר וּבְחַמְשָׁא עֲסַר בְּגוֹ פַּצִיחַיָא וּלְחַיָתָא דְפִלְכַיָא בְּקִרְוַיָא כְּפוּם זִמְנֵיהוֹן:

The Aramaic translation read beside the Hebrew. Text only: Mova has no Aramaic parser yet.
