# Ezekiel 35:10 · JPS 1917

<!-- .ven lang=en -->
Because thou hast said: These two nations and these two countries shall be mine, and we will possess it; whereas the LORD was there;

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** thou, two nations, we, LORD · **What happens:** say, be, possess · **To what, where:** mine, hatred · **Speech:** someone speaks here

<!-- .vabout -->
This is Ezekiel 35:10 · 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 (thou, two nations, we, 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.
