Psalms 40:16 תְּהִלִּים

Who acts: you, reason, mercy · What happens: let, appall, say, shame · To what, where: mercy · Speech: someone speaks in this verse

This is Psalms 40:16 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 — you, reason, mercy — and what happens in the verse to mercy, 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.

יָ֭שֹׁמּוּ עַל־עֵ֣קֶב בָּשְׁתָּ֑ם הָאֹמְרִ֥ים לִ֝י֗ הֶ֘אָ֥ח ׀ הֶאָֽח׃

Let them be appalled by reason of their shame that say unto me: 'Aha, aha.'

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: statement
act: assert
voice: character
speech: a frame and its quote
negation: no
the frame alone: decl · assert · none

verb	form · stem	who (A0)	what, whom (A1)	to whom, further (A2)	who makes it happen (AA)
יָשֹׁמּוּ may they be appalled	yiqtol · qal	אֹמְרִים who] say
אֹמְרִים who] say	participle active · qal		הֶאָח aha!

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

יִתְבַּיְרוּן מְטוּל בַּהֲתֵיהוֹן דְאָמְרִין לִי חֲדֵינָא עַל תַּבְרֵיהּ חֶדְוָא עַל סִגוּפֵיהּ:

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.

Let them be appalled by reason of their shame that say unto me: 'Aha, aha.'
