# Leviticus 14:43 · JPS 1917

<!-- .ven lang=en -->
And if the plague come again, and break out in the house, after that the stones have been taken out, and after the house hath been scraped, and after it is plastered;

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** plague · **What happens:** come, break out, take out, scrape, plaster · **To what, where:** house, stones

<!-- .vabout -->
This is Leviticus 14:43 · 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 (plague), 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.
