Psalms 132:12 תְּהִלִּים

Who acts: children, I, My · What happens: keep, teach, sit, covenant, testify · To what, where: covenant, testimony, throne

This is Psalms 132:12 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 — children, I, My — and what happens in the verse to covenant, testimony, throne, 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 150 chapters of Psalms on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

אִֽם־יִשְׁמְר֬וּ בָנֶ֨יךָ ׀ בְּרִיתִי֮ וְעֵדֹתִ֥י ז֗וֹ אֲלַ֫מְּדֵ֥ם גַּם־בְּנֵיהֶ֥ם עֲדֵי־עַ֑ד יֵ֝שְׁב֗וּ לְכִסֵּא־לָֽךְ׃

If thy children keep My covenant and My testimony that I shall teach them, their children also for ever shall sit upon thy throne.'

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

אִין נָטְרִין בְּנָךְ קְיָמִי וְסָהִדְוָתִי דְנָן דְאַלְפִנוּן אַף בְּנֵיהוֹן לְעַלְמִין יֵתְבוּן עַל כּוּרְסֵי דִי לָךְ:

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

English, JPS 1917

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.

If thy children keep My covenant and My testimony that I shall teach them, their children also for ever shall sit upon thy throne.'
