1 Samuel 22:14 · JPS 1917

Then Ahimelech answered the king, and said: 'And who among all thy servants is so trusted as David, who is the king's son-in-law, and giveth heed unto thy bidding, and is honourable in thy house?

Who acts: Ahimelech, David, thy · What happens: answer, say, trust, be, give, bid · To what, where: king, son, law, heed, house · Speech: someone speaks here

This is 1 Samuel 22:14 · JPS 1917 in the English of the Jewish Publication Society's 1917 translation, from Mova's open Bible corpus. The page gives the sentence's syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies, parsed by Mova and checked by a teacher model — and its pragmatics clause by clause: who acts (Ahimelech, David, thy), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it. The original of the verse links back to its own tree and to the Targum.
