Psalms 39:4 תְּהִלִּים

Who acts: heart, I, fire · What happens: wax, muse, kindle, speak · Speech: someone speaks in this verse

This is Psalms 39:4 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 — heart, I, fire — and what happens in the verse, 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.

חַם־לִבִּ֨י ׀ בְּקִרְבִּ֗י בַּהֲגִיגִ֥י תִבְעַר־אֵ֑שׁ דִּ֝בַּ֗רְתִּי בִּלְשֽׁוֹנִי׃

My heart waxed hot within me; while I was musing, the fire kindled; then spoke I with my tongue:

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.

רָתַח בִּי בְגוּשְׁמֵי בְּרִינְנִי תִדְלַק אֶשְׁתָּא מַלְלֵית בְּלִישָׁנִי:

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