Jeremiah 41:5 · JPS 1917

that there came certain men from Shechem, from Shiloh, and from Samaria, even fourscore men, having their beards shaven and their clothes rent, and having cut themselves, with meal-offerings and frankincense in their hand to bring them to the house of the LORD.

Who acts: certain men, fourscore men, beards · What happens: come, have, shave, rent, cut, bring · To what, where: beards, clothes, men, house

This is Jeremiah 41:5 · 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 (certain men, fourscore men, beards), 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.
