Judges 5:6 שֹׁפְטִים

Who acts: highways, travellers · What happens: cease, walk · To what, where: byways

This is Judges 5:6 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 — highways, travellers — and what happens in the verse to byways, 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 21 chapters of Judges on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

בִּימֵ֞י שַׁמְגַּ֤ר בֶּן־עֲנָת֙ בִּימֵ֣י יָעֵ֔ל חָדְל֖וּ אֳרָח֑וֹת וְהֹלְכֵ֣י נְתִיב֔וֹת יֵלְכ֕וּ אֳרָח֖וֹת עֲקַלְקַלּֽוֹת׃

In the days of Shamgar the son of Anath, in the days of Jael, the highways ceased, and the travellers walked through byways.

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.

Pragmatics

form: statement
act: assert
voice: narrator
speech: narration
negation: no

verb	form · stem	who (A0)	what, whom (A1)	to whom, further (A2)	who makes it happen (AA)
חָדְלוּ they ceased	qatal · qal	אֳרָחוֹת roads
יֵלְכוּ they walked	yiqtol · qal	הֹלְכֵי walkers

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

כַּד חָבוּ בְּיוֹמֵי שַׁמְגַר בַּר עֲנָת בְּיוֹמֵי יָעֵל פְּסַקוּ עָדֵי אוֹרְחָן דַהֲווֹן מְהַלְכִין בִּשְׁבִילִין דְתַקְנִין תָּבוּ לְמֶהֱוֵי אָזְלִין בְּאוֹרְחָן מְגַנְבָן:

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