And the altars that were on the roof of the upper chamber of Ahaz, which the kings of Judah had made, and the altars which Manasseh had made in the two courts of the house of the LORD, did the king break down, and beat them down from thence, and cast the dust of them into the brook Kidron.

Who acts: altars, kings, Manasseh, king · What happens: be, make, break down, beat down, cast · To what, where: roof, Ahaz, altars, two courts, courts, dust

This is 2 Kings 23:12 · 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 (altars, kings, Manasseh, king), 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.
