Judges 1:1 · JPS 1917

AND IT came to pass after the death of Joshua, that the children of Israel asked the LORD, saying: 'Who shall go up for us first against the Canaanites, to fight against them?'

Who acts: IT, children, Joshua · What happens: come, pass, ask, say, go up, fight · To what, where: LORD · Speech: someone speaks here

This is Judges 1:1 · 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 (IT, children, Joshua), 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.
