Deuteronomy 34

The Death of Moses

1And Moses went up from the plains of Moab to mount Nebo, the top of Pisgah, which is over against Jericho. And the LORD showed him all the land, the Gilead as far as Dan; 2And all Naphtali, and the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, and all the land of Judah as far as the hinder sea; 3And the Negev, and the plain, the valley of Jericho, the city of palms, as far as Zoar.

4And the LORD said to him: This is the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying: To your seed I will give it; I have caused you to see it with your eyes, but there you shall not pass over.

5And Moses the servant of the LORD died there in the land of Moab, according to the mouth of the LORD. 6And he buried him in the valley in the land of Moab, over against Beth-peor; and no man^a knew his burial place to this day.

7And Moses was a son of a hundred and twenty years at his death; his eye was not dim, nor his freshness fled. 8And the sons of Israel wept for Moses in the plains of Moab thirty days; and the days of weeping of the mourning for Moses were ended.

9And Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit^b of wisdom, for Moses had laid his hands upon him; and the sons of Israel listened to him, and did as the LORD commanded^c Moses. 10And there has not arisen a prophet again in Israel like Moses, whom the LORD knew face to face; 11In all the signs^d and the wonders^e, which the LORD sent him to do in the land of Egypt, to Pharaoh, and to all his servants, and to all his land; 12And in all the strong hand, and in all the great terror, which Moses did in the eyes of all Israel.
