# Jeremiah 17:7 · JPS 1917

<!-- .ven lang=en -->
Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose trust the LORD is.

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** man · **What happens:** bless, trust · **To what, where:** man

<!-- .vabout -->
This is Jeremiah 17:7 · 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 (man), 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.
