2 Samuel 4:4 שְׁמוּאֵל ב

Who acts: Jonathan, son, tidings, nurse, Saul, name · What happens: have, be, come, take up, flee, pass · To what, where: son, Jonathan, haste, Mephibosheth

This is 2 Samuel 4:4 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 — Jonathan, son, tidings, nurse, Saul, name — and what happens in the verse to son, Jonathan, haste, Mephibosheth, 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 24 chapters of 2 Samuel on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

וְלִיהֽוֹנָתָן֙ בֶּן־שָׁא֔וּל בֵּ֖ן נְכֵ֣ה רַגְלָ֑יִם בֶּן־חָמֵ֣שׁ שָׁנִ֣ים הָיָ֡ה בְּבֹ֣א שְׁמֻעַת֩ שָׁא֨וּל וִיהֽוֹנָתָ֜ן מִֽיִּזְרְעֶ֗אל וַתִּשָּׂאֵ֤הוּ אֹֽמַנְתּוֹ֙ וַתָּנֹ֔ס וַיְהִ֞י בְּחָפְזָ֥הּ לָנ֛וּס וַיִּפֹּ֥ל וַיִּפָּסֵ֖חַ וּשְׁמ֥וֹ מְפִיבֹֽשֶׁת׃

Now Jonathan, Saul's son, had a son that was lame of his feet. He was five years old when the tidings came of Saul and Jonathan out of Jezreel, and his nurse took him up, and fled; and it came to pass, as she made haste to flee, that he fell, and became lame. And his name was Mephibosheth.

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

וְלִיהוֹנָתָן בַּר שָׁאוּל בְּרָא לָקֵי בִּתְרֵין רִגְלוֹהִי בַּר חָמֵשׁ שְׁנִין הֲוָה כַּד אָתַת בְּשׂוּרַת שָׁאוּל וִיהוֹנָתָן מִיִזְרְעֶאל וּנְטַלְתֵּיהּ תּוּרְבַנְתֵּיהּ וְאַפֵּיכַת וַהֲוָה בְּאִתְבָּעֲיוּתָה לְמֶעֶרַק וּנְפַל וַחֲגָר וּשְׁמֵיהּ מְפִיבֹשֶׁת:

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