- Chapter 34 -

1
Then Moses went up from the plains of Moab upon mount Nebo, to the top of Phasga over against Jericho: and the Lord shewed him all the land of Galaad as far as Dan.
2
And all Nephtali, and the land of Ephraim and Manasses, and all the land of Juda unto the furthermost sea,
3
And the south part, and the breadth of the plain of Jericho the city of palm trees as far as Segor.
4
And the Lord said to him: This is the land, for which I swore to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying: I will give it to thy seed. Thou hast seen it with thy eyes, and shalt not pass over to it.
5
And Moses the servant of the Lord died there, in the land of Moab, by the commandment of the Lord:
6
And he buried him in the valley of the land of Moab over against Phogor: and no man hath known of his sepulchre until this present day.
7
Moses was a hundred and twenty years old when he died: his eye was not dim, neither were his teeth moved.
8
And the children of Israel mourned for him in the plains of Moab thirty days: and the days of their mourning in which they mourned for Moses were ended.
9
And Josue the son of Nun was filled with the spirit of wisdom, because Moses had laid his hands upon him. And the children of Israel obeyed him, and did as the Lord commanded Moses.
10
And there arose no more a prophet in Israel like unto Moses, whom the Lord knew face to face,
11
In all the signs and wonders, which he sent by him, to do in the land of Egypt to Pharao, and to all his servants, and to his whole land,
12
And all the mighty hand, and great miracles, which Moses did before all Israel.
1
Moses went up from the plains of Moab to Mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, that is opposite Jericho. The LORD showed him all the land of Gilead to Dan,
2
and all Naphtali, and the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, and all the land of Judah, to the Western Sea,
3
and the south,(a) and the Plain of the valley of Jericho the city of palm trees, to Zoar.
4
The LORD said to him, “This is the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, ‘I will give it to your offspring.’ I have caused you to see it with your eyes, but you shall not go over there.”
5
So Moses the servant of the LORD died there in the land of Moab, according to the LORD’s word.
6
He buried him in the valley in the land of Moab opposite Beth Peor, but no man knows where his tomb is to this day.
7
Moses was one hundred twenty years old when he died. His eye was not dim, nor his strength gone.
8
The children of Israel wept for Moses in the plains of Moab thirty days, until the days of weeping in the mourning for Moses were ended.
9
Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom, for Moses had laid his hands on him. The children of Israel listened to him, and did as the LORD commanded Moses.
10
Since then, there has not arisen a prophet in Israel like Moses, whom the LORD knew face to face,
11
in all the signs and the wonders which the LORD sent him to do in the land of Egypt, to Pharaoh, and to all his servants, and to all his land,
12
and in all the mighty hand, and in all the awesome deeds, which Moses did in the sight of all Israel.
