2 Kings 17:26 · JPS 1917

Wherefore they spoke to the king of Assyria, saying: 'The nations which thou hast carried away, and placed in the cities of Samaria, know not the manner of the God of the land; therefore He hath sent lions among them, and, behold, they slay them, because they know not the manner of the God of the land.'

Who acts: men, thou, nations, Samaria · What happens: speak, say, carry away, place, not know, send · To what, where: nations, cities, manner, lions · Speech: someone speaks here

This is 2 Kings 17:26 · 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 (men, thou, nations, Samaria), 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.
