Song of Songs 7:9 שִׁיר הַשִּׁירִים

Who acts: I, breasts, countenance · What happens: say, climb up, take, let, be, hold · To what, where: palm tree, hold, breasts, branches · Speech: someone speaks in this verse

This is Song of Songs 7:9 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 — I, breasts, countenance — and what happens in the verse to palm tree, hold, breasts, branches, 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 8 chapters of Song of Songs on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

אָמַ֙רְתִּי֙ אֶעֱלֶ֣ה בְתָמָ֔ר אֹֽחֲזָ֖ה בְּסַנְסִנָּ֑יו וְיִֽהְיוּ־נָ֤א שָׁדַ֙יִךְ֙ כְּאֶשְׁכְּל֣וֹת הַגֶּ֔פֶן וְרֵ֥יחַ אַפֵּ֖ךְ כַּתַּפּוּחִֽים׃

I said: 'I will climb up into the palm-tree, I will take hold of the branches thereof; and let thy breasts be as clusters of the vine, and the smell of thy countenance like apples;

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

אֲמַר יְיָ בְּמֵימְרֵיהּ אַסַּק וַאֲנַסֵּי לְדָנִיֵּאל וְאַחְזֵי אִי כָּהִיל לְמֵיקָם בְּנִסְיוֹנָא חֲדָא הֵיכְמָא דְּקָם אַבְרָהָם דְּדָמֵי לְלוֹלַבָּא דְּתָמָר בְּעַסְרָא נִסְיוֹנִין וּבָחֵין אֲנָא אַף לַחֲנַנְיָה מִישָׁאֵל וַעֲזַרְיָה אִי כָּהְלִין לְמֵיקָם בְּנִסְיוֹנְהוֹן אֶפְרוֹק בְּדִיל זְכוּתְהוֹן לְעַמָּא בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל דִּמְתִילִין לְאַתְכָּלִין דְּעִנְבִין וְשׁוֹמְהוֹן דְּדָנִיֵּאל חֲנַנְיָה מִישָׁאֵל וַעֲזַרְיָה אִשְׁתְּמַע בְּכָל אַרְעָא וְרֵיחֵיהוֹן יְהֵי נָדֵיף כְּרֵיחַ תַּפּוּחִין דְּגִנְּתָא דְּעֵדֶן:

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