# Deuteronomy 26:9 · JPS 1917

<!-- .ven lang=en -->
And He hath brought us into this place, and hath given us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey.

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** LORD, land · **What happens:** bring, give, flow · **To what, where:** us, place, land

<!-- .vabout -->
This is Deuteronomy 26:9 · 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, land), 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.
