Jeremiah 46:23 · JPS 1917

They cut down her forest, saith the LORD, though it cannot be searched; because they are more than the locusts, and are innumerable.

Who acts: mercenaries, LORD · What happens: cut down, say, not search, be · To what, where: forest · Speech: someone speaks here

This is Jeremiah 46:23 · 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 (mercenaries, LORD), 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.

The tree and the speech act come from Mova's cycle: the small model's draft, read by a large model as teacher, passed by Mova's gates (Elamur Cosmic License). The frames are read from the tree by Mova's frames reader (prag) when this page is built, the chapter read in order, so a pronoun may be resolved from an earlier sentence of the chapter.
