# Isaiah 49:18 · JPS 1917, sentence 1 of 2

<!-- .ven lang=en -->
Lift up thine eyes round about, and behold: all these gather themselves together, and come to thee.

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** you, these · **What happens:** lift up, gather, come · **To what, where:** eyes, thee

<!-- .vabout -->
This is Isaiah 49:18 · JPS 1917, sentence 1 of 2 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, these), 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.

This verse in JPS 1917:

<!-- .ens -->
1. **Lift up thine eyes round about, and behold: all these gather themselves together, and come to thee.**
2. [As I live, saith the LORD, thou shalt surely clothe thee with them all as with an ornament, and gird thyself with them, like a bride.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ISA.1102/)

**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.
