# Leviticus 26:34 · JPS 1917

<!-- .ven lang=en -->
Then shall the land be paid her sabbaths, as long as it lieth desolate, and ye are in your enemies' land; even then shall the land rest, and repay her sabbaths.

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** land, ye · **What happens:** pay, lie, be, rest, repay · **To what, where:** land, sabbaths

<!-- .vabout -->
This is Leviticus 26:34 · 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 (land, ye), 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.
