Psalms 144:12 תְּהִלִּים

Who acts: sons, daughters · What happens: be, grow up, carve · To what, where: plants, youth, corner pillars

This is Psalms 144:12 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 — sons, daughters — and what happens in the verse to plants, youth, corner pillars, 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.

אֲשֶׁ֤ר בָּנֵ֨ינוּ ׀ כִּנְטִעִים֮ מְגֻדָּלִ֪ים בִּֽנְעוּרֵ֫יהֶ֥ם בְּנוֹתֵ֥ינוּ כְזָוִיֹּ֑ת מְ֝חֻטָּב֗וֹת תַּבְנִ֥ית הֵיכָֽל׃

We whose sons are as plants grown up in their youth; whose daughters are as corner-pillars carved after the fashion of a palace;

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

דִבְנָנָא כִּנְצִיבִין דְדִקְלִין בְּאוּלְפָן אוֹרַיְתָא רַבְיָן מִן טַלְיוּתְהוֹן בְּנָתָנָא זִוְתָנִין וּכְשֵׁרִין לְכַהֲנַיָא דִמְשַׁמְשִׁין בִּמְצַע הֵיכְלָא:

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