# Isaiah 10:3 · JPS 1917, sentence 1 of 3

<!-- .ven lang=en -->
And what will ye do in the day of visitation, and in the ruin which shall come from far?

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** ye, ruin · **What happens:** do, come

<!-- .vabout -->
This is Isaiah 10:3 · JPS 1917, sentence 1 of 3 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 (ye, ruin), 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.
