Psalms 59:12 תְּהִלִּים

Who acts: you, people, nations · What happens: not slay, forget, make, wander, bring down · To what, where: nations

This is Psalms 59:12 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 — you, people, nations — and what happens in the verse to nations, 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.

אַל־תַּהַרְגֵ֤ם ׀ פֶּֽן־יִשְׁכְּח֬וּ עַמִּ֗י הֲנִיעֵ֣מוֹ בְ֭חֵילְךָ וְהוֹרִידֵ֑מוֹ מָֽגִנֵּ֣נוּ אֲדֹנָֽי׃

Slay them not, lest my people forget, make them wander to and fro by Thy power, and bring them down, O Lord our shield.

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

לָא תִקְטְלִינוּן מִן יַד דִלְמָא יִתְנְשׁוּן עַמִי טַלְטֵל יַתְהוֹן מִן בָּתֵּיהוֹן בְּתוּקְפָךְ וּתְמַסְכֵּן יַתְהוֹן מִן מָמוֹנֵיהוֹן תְּרִיסָנָא יְיָ:
