< Deuteronomy 34 >

1 Moses left the plains of Moab and went to Mount Nebo, climbing right to the top of Pisgah that faces in the direction of Jericho. The Lord showed him the whole country, from Gilead all the way to Dan.
Then Moses went up from the plains of Moab to Mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, which faces Jericho. And the LORD showed him the whole land—from Gilead as far as Dan,
2 This included all the territories of Naphtali, Ephraim and Manasseh, Judah as far as the Mediterranean Sea,
all of Naphtali, the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, all the land of Judah as far as the Western Sea,
3 the Negev, and the Jordan Valley from Jericho (the city of palms) down to Zoar.
the Negev, and the region from the Valley of Jericho (the City of Palms) all the way to Zoar.
4 The Lord told him, “This is the country I solemnly promised to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob when I said, ‘I'm giving it to your descendants.’ I have allowed you to see it for yourself, but you're not going to enter it.”
And the LORD said to him, “This is the land that I swore to give Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob when I said, ‘I will give it to your descendants.’ I have let you see it with your own eyes, but you will not cross into it.”
5 Moses, the servant of the Lord, died there in the country of Moab, just as the Lord had said.
So Moses the servant of the LORD died there in the land of Moab, as the LORD had said.
6 He buried him in a valley there in Moab that is opposite Beth-peor, but no one knows to this day where Moses' grave is.
And He buried him in a valley in the land of Moab facing Beth-peor, and no one to this day knows the location of his grave.
7 Moses was 120 when he died, yet he was still seeing clearly and he was still strong.
Moses was a hundred and twenty years old when he died, yet his eyes were not weak, and his vitality had not diminished.
8 The Israelites mourned for Moses on the plains of Moab for thirty days, until the time of mourning was over.
The Israelites grieved for Moses in the plains of Moab thirty days, until the time of weeping and mourning for Moses came to an end.
9 Joshua, son of Nun, was filled with the spirit of wisdom because Moses had placed his hands on him to dedicate him. The Israelites paid attention to him, and followed the instructions the Lord had given to Moses.
Now Joshua son of Nun was filled with the spirit of wisdom because Moses had laid his hands on him. So the Israelites obeyed him and did as the LORD had commanded Moses.
10 Since then there has never been a prophet in Israel like Moses who was the Lord's close friend.
Since that time, no prophet has risen in Israel like Moses, whom the LORD knew face to face—
11 The Lord sent him to carry out all the signs and miracles in Egypt to convince Pharaoh and his officials, and all the people in the country.
no prophet who did all the signs and wonders that the LORD sent Moses to do in the land of Egypt to Pharaoh and to all his officials and all his land,
12 Moses did these amazing things with tremendous power as the Israelites watched.
and no prophet who performed all the mighty acts of power and awesome deeds that Moses did in the sight of all Israel.
