Deuteronomy 34

1 And Moses went up from the table-lands of Moab to Mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah which is facing Jericho. And the Lord let him see all the land, the land of Gilead as far as Dan;

Derpaa steg Moses fra Moabs Sletter op paa Nebobjerget, til Toppen af Pisga, lige over for Jeriko; og HERREN lod ham skue ud over hele Landet: Gilead lige til Dan,

2 And all Naphtali and the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, and all the land of Judah, as far as the Great Sea of the west;

hele Naftali, Efraims og Manasses Land, hele Judas Land indtil Havet i Vest,

3 And the South, and the circle of the valley of Jericho, the town of palm-trees, as far as Zoar.

Sydlandet og Jordanegnen, Sænkningen ved Jeriko, Palmestaden, lige til Zoar.

4 And the Lord said to him, This is the land about which I made an oath to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying, I will give it to your seed: now I have let you see it with your eyes, but you will not go in there.

Og HERREN sagde til ham: »Det er det Land, jeg tilsvor Abraham, Isak og Jakob, da jeg sagde: Dit Afkom vil jeg give det! Nu har jeg ladet dig skue ud over det med dine egne Øjne; men du skal ikke drage derover!«

5 So death came to Moses, the servant of the Lord, there in the land of Moab, as the Lord had said.

Og Moses, HERRENS Tjener, døde der i Moabs Land, som HERREN havde sagt.

6 And the Lord put him to rest in the valley in the land of Moab opposite Beth-peor: but no man has knowledge of his resting-place to this day.

Og han begravede ham i Dalen i Moab lige over for Bet-Peor. Indtil denne Dag har intet Menneske kendt hans Grav.

7 And Moses at his death was a hundred and twenty years old: his eye had not become clouded, or his natural force become feeble.

Moses var 120 Aar, da han døde; hans Øje var ikke sløvet og hans Livskraft ikke svundet.

8 For thirty days the children of Israel were weeping for Moses in the table-lands of Moab, till the days of weeping and sorrow for Moses were ended.

Og Israeliterne græd over Moses i tredive Dage paa Moabs Sletter, indtil Tiden for Dødeklagen over Moses var til Ende.

9 And Joshua, the son of Nun, was full of the spirit of wisdom; for Moses had put his hands on him: and the children of Israel gave ear to him, and did as the Lord had given orders to Moses.

Og Josua, Nuns Søn, var fuld af Visdoms Aand, fordi Moses havde lagt sine Hænder paa ham, og Israeliterne adlød ham og gjorde, som HERREN havde paalagt Moses.

10 There has never been another prophet in Israel like Moses, whom the Lord had knowledge of face to face;

Men i Israel opstod der ikke mere en Profet som Moses, hvem HERREN omgikkes Ansigt til Ansigt,

11 In all the signs and wonders which the Lord sent him to do in the land of Egypt, to Pharaoh and to all his servants and all his land;

naar der ses hen til alle de Tegn og Undere, HERREN lod ham udføre i Ægypten over for Farao, alle hans Tjenere og hele hans Land,

12 And in all the acts of power and fear which Moses did before the eyes of all Israel.

og til den vældige Kraft og alt det forfærdelige og store, Moses udførte i hele Israels Paasyn.
