Job 9:24 אִיּוֹב

Who acts: mouth, earth · What happens: give, cover, not be, be · To what, where: earth, hand, faces, mouth

This is Job 9:24 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 — mouth, earth — and what happens in the verse to earth, hand, faces, mouth, 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 42 chapters of Job on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

אֶ֤רֶץ ׀ נִתְּנָ֬ה בְֽיַד־רָשָׁ֗ע פְּנֵֽי־שֹׁפְטֶ֥יהָ יְכַסֶּ֑ה אִם־לֹ֖א אֵפ֣וֹא מִי־הֽוּא׃

The earth is given into the hand of the wicked; he covereth the faces of the judges thereof; if it be not He, who then is it?

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: wh-question
act: ask
voice: character
speech: inside a quote begun earlier
negation: yes

verb	form · stem	who (A0)	what, whom (A1)	to whom, further (A2)	who makes it happen (AA)
נִתְּנָה it has been given	qatal · niphal		אֶרֶץ a land
יְכַסֶּה he covers	yiqtol · piel		פְּנֵֽי־ the faces

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

אַרְעָא אִתְמְסַרַת בְּיַד חַיָבָא מִן קֳדָם יְיָ דַיָנָהָא יַחְפֵי זְכוּתָא אִין לָא דֵיכֵי מַן הוּא:

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

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.

The earth is given into the hand of the wicked; he covereth the faces of the judges thereof; if it be not He, who then is it?
