# Jeremiah 14:9 · JPS 1917, sentence 2 of 2

<!-- .ven lang=en -->
Yet Thou, O LORD, art in the midst of us, and Thy name is called upon us; leave us not.

<!-- .vintro -->

<!-- .vabout -->
This is Jeremiah 14:9 · JPS 1917, sentence 2 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 (Thou, Thy), 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.
