Numbers 21:27 בְּמִדְבַּר

Who acts: cities, ye · What happens: speak, say, come, let, build, establish · To what, where: parables, Heshbon, city · Speech: someone speaks in this verse

This is Numbers 21:27 from Mova's open Bible corpus, the Tanakh in three languages (The Torah). The page gives the verse in Hebrew as the Westminster Leningrad Codex has it, its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies, built from MACULA Hebrew — and its pragmatics: who acts — cities, ye — and what happens in the verse to parables, Heshbon, city, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the Aramaic of Targum Onkelos and the English of the Jewish Publication Society's 1917 translation, each English sentence with a tree of its own. It is one of the 36 chapters of Numbers on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

עַל־כֵּ֛ן יֹאמְר֥וּ הַמֹּשְׁלִ֖ים בֹּ֣אוּ חֶשְׁבּ֑וֹן תִּבָּנֶ֥ה וְתִכּוֹנֵ֖ן עִ֥יר סִיחֽוֹן׃

Wherefore they that speak in parables say: Come ye to Heshbon! let the city of Sihon be built and established!

The tree

Right to left, as the Hebrew is read; a prefix or suffix is a word of its own, and a line under the words joins those written as one. Under each word its part of speech and MACULA's English gloss.

Pragmatics

form: command
act: request
voice: character
speech: a frame and its quote
negation: no
the frame alone: decl · assert · none

verb	form · stem	who (A0)	what, whom (A1)
יֹאמְרוּ they say	yiqtol · qal	מֹּשְׁלִים who] speak proverbs
בֹּאוּ come	imperative · qal
תִּבָּנֶה let it be rebuilt	jussive · niphal		עִיר the city
תִכּוֹנֵן let it be established	jussive · hithpolel		עִיר the city

MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant. A0 is the one who acts, A1 what the act is done to or is about, A2 a further participant; AA, with a causative verb, the one who makes it happen.

Targum Onkelos

עַל כֵּן יֵימְרוּן מְתָלַיָא עוּלוּ לְחֶשְׁבּוֹן תִּתְבְּנֵי וְתִשְׁתַּכְלַל קַרְתָּא דְסִיחוֹן

The Aramaic translation read beside the Hebrew. Text only: Mova has no Aramaic parser yet.

English, JPS 1917

Each sentence on its own page, with its tree and pragmatics. A sentence that runs on into the next verse is listed under the verse it begins in.

Wherefore they that speak in parables say: Come ye to Heshbon! let the city of Sihon be built and established!
