Deuteronomy 34

The Death of Moses

1 Then Moses went up from the plains of Moab ^ato Mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, which is opposite Jericho. And the Lord showed him all the land, Gilead as far as Dan, 2 all Naphtali, the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, all the land of Judah ^bas far as the western sea, 3 ^cthe Negeb, and ^dthe Plain, that is, the Valley of Jericho ^ethe city of palm trees, as far as ^fZoar. 4 And the Lord said to him, ^g“This is the land of which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, ‘I will give it to your offspring.’ ^hI have let you see it with your eyes, but ⁱyou shall not go over there.” 5 So Moses the servant of the Lord died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of the Lord, 6 and he buried him in the valley in the land of Moab opposite Beth-peor; but ^jno one knows the place of his burial to this day. 7 ^kMoses was 120 years old when he died. ^lHis eye was undimmed, and his vigor unabated. 8 And the people of Israel ^mwept for Moses in the plains of Moab thirty days. Then the days of weeping and mourning for Moses were ended.

9 And Joshua the son of Nun was full of ⁿthe spirit of wisdom, for ^oMoses had laid his hands on him. So ^pthe people of Israel obeyed him and did as the Lord had commanded Moses. 10 And there has not ^qarisen a prophet since in Israel like Moses, ^rwhom the Lord knew face to face, 11 none like him for all ^sthe signs and the wonders that 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 for all the mighty power and all the great deeds of terror that Moses did in the sight of all Israel.
