Genesis 4:23 · JPS 1917

And Lamech said unto his wives: Adah and Zillah, hear my voice; ye wives of Lamech, hearken unto my speech; for I have slain a man for wounding me, and a young man for bruising me;

Who acts: Lamech, ye, I, man, young man, my · What happens: say, hear, hearken, slay, wound, bruise · To what, where: voice, man, me · Speech: someone speaks here

This is Genesis 4:23 · 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 (Lamech, ye, I, man), 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.
