# Ezekiel 16:60 · JPS 1917

<!-- .ven lang=en -->
Nevertheless I will remember My covenant with thee in the days of thy youth, and I will establish unto thee an everlasting covenant.

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** I, My · **What happens:** remember, establish, covenant · **To what, where:** covenant, everlasting covenant

<!-- .vabout -->
This is Ezekiel 16:60 · 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 (I, My), 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.
