# Proverbs 10:25 · JPS 1917

<!-- .ven lang=en -->
When the whirlwind passeth, the wicked is no more; but the righteous is an everlasting foundation.

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** whirlwind, wicked, righteous · **What happens:** pass, not be, be · **To what, where:** everlasting foundation

<!-- .vabout -->
This is Proverbs 10:25 · 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 (whirlwind, wicked, righteous), 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.
