Isaiah 21:9 יְשַׁעְיָהוּ

Who acts: troop, Lord · What happens: come, speak, say, fall, be, break · To what, where: Babylon, graven images, gods · Speech: someone speaks in this verse

This is Isaiah 21:9 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 — troop, Lord — and what happens in the verse to Babylon, graven images, gods, 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 66 chapters of Isaiah on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

וְהִנֵּה־זֶ֥ה בָא֙ רֶ֣כֶב אִ֔ישׁ צֶ֖מֶד פָּֽרָשִׁ֑ים וַיַּ֣עַן וַיֹּ֗אמֶר נָפְלָ֤ה נָֽפְלָה֙ בָּבֶ֔ל וְכָל־פְּסִילֵ֥י אֱלֹהֶ֖יהָ שִׁבַּ֥ר לָאָֽרֶץ׃

And, behold, there came a troop of men, horsemen by pairs. And he spoke and said: 'Fallen, fallen is Babylon; and all the graven images of her gods are broken unto the ground.'

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.

וְהָא דֵין אָתָא רְתַךְ אֱנַשׁ וְעִמֵיהּ זוֹג פָּרָשִׁין וְאָתִיב וַאֲמַר נְפַלַת וְאַף עֲתִידָא לְמִפַּל בָּבֶל וְכָל צַלְמֵי טַעֲוָתָהָא יְדַקְדְקוּן לְאַרְעָא:
