Isaiah 28:17 יְשַׁעְיָהוּ

Who acts: I, hail, waters · What happens: make, sweep away, overflow · To what, where: line, justice, refuge, hiding place

This is Isaiah 28:17 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 — I, hail, waters — and what happens in the verse to line, justice, refuge, hiding place, 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.

וְשַׂמְתִּ֤י מִשְׁפָּט֙ לְקָ֔ו וּצְדָקָ֖ה לְמִשְׁקָ֑לֶת וְיָעָ֤ה בָרָד֙ מַחְסֵ֣ה כָזָ֔ב וְסֵ֥תֶר מַ֖יִם יִשְׁטֹֽפוּ׃

And I will make justice the line, and righteousness the plummet; and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding-place.

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

וֶאֱשַׁוֵי דִנָא תַקִין דְאִטַמַרְתּוּן כְּחוּט בִּנְיָנָא וּזְכוּתָא כְּאֶבֶן מַשְׁקוּלְתָּא וְיִדְלַק רוּגְזִי בְּרוֹחֲצָן כִּדְבֵיכוֹן וְעַל דְאִטַמַרְתּוּן מִן קֳדָם מְעִיקָא יַתְכוֹן עַמְמַיָא יִגְלוֹן:
