# Isaiah 33:22 · JPS 1917

<!-- .ven lang=en -->
For the LORD is our Judge, the LORD is our Lawgiver, the LORD is our King; He will save us.

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** LORD · **What happens:** be, save · **To what, where:** Judge, Lawgiver, King, us

<!-- .vabout -->
This is Isaiah 33:22 · 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 (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.
