# 1 Kings 17:3 · JPS 1917

<!-- .ven lang=en -->
'Get thee hence, and turn thee eastward, and hide thyself by the brook Cherith, that is before the Jordan.

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** you, brook · **What happens:** get, turn, hide, be · **To what, where:** thee, thyself

<!-- .vabout -->
This is 1 Kings 17:3 · 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 (you, brook), 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.
