1 Samuel 26:16 שְׁמוּאֵל א

Who acts: thing, thou, LORD, ye, you, cruse · What happens: not be, do, live, deserve, die, not keep · To what, where: thing, watch, spear, head

This is 1 Samuel 26:16 from Mova's open Bible corpus, the Tanakh in three languages (Nevi'im — the Prophets). 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 — thing, thou, LORD, ye, you, cruse — and what happens in the verse to thing, watch, spear, head, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the Aramaic of Targum Jonathan 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 31 chapters of 1 Samuel on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

לֹא־ט֞וֹב הַדָּבָ֣ר הַזֶּה֮ אֲשֶׁ֣ר עָשִׂיתָ֒ חַי־יְהוָ֗ה כִּ֤י בְנֵי־מָ֙וֶת֙ אַתֶּ֔ם אֲשֶׁ֧ר לֹֽא־שְׁמַרְתֶּ֛ם עַל־אֲדֹנֵיכֶ֖ם עַל־מְשִׁ֣יחַ יְהוָ֑ה וְעַתָּ֣ה ׀ רְאֵ֗ה אֵֽי־חֲנִ֥ית הַמֶּ֛לֶךְ וְאֶת־צַפַּ֥חַת הַמַּ֖יִם אֲשֶׁ֥ר מְרַאֲשֹׁתָֽיו׃

This thing is not good that thou hast done. As the LORD liveth, ye deserve to die, because ye have not kept watch over your lord, the LORD'S anointed. And now, see, where the king's spear is, and the cruse of water that was at his head.'

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.

Targum Jonathan

לָא תַקֵין פִּתְגָמָא הָדֵין דִי עֲבַדְתָּא קַיָים הוּא יְיָ אֲרֵי גַבְרִין חַיָבֵי קְטוֹל אַתּוּן דְלָא נְטַרְתּוּן עַל רִבּוֹנְכוֹן עַל מְשִׁיחָא דַייָ וּכְעַן חֲזֵי אָן מוּרְנִיתָא דְמַלְכָּא וְיַת מָנָא דְמַיָא דְאִיסָדוֹהִי:

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.

1. This thing is not good that thou hast done.
2. As the LORD liveth, ye deserve to die, because ye have not kept watch over your lord, the LORD'S anointed.
3. And now, see, where the king's spear is, and the cruse of water that was at his head.'
