LEB DEU Chapter 34

The Death of Moses and the Commissioning of Joshua

34 Then Moses went up from the desert plateau[fn] of Moab to Mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, which is opposite[fn] Jericho, and Yahweh showed him all of the land, Gilead all the way up to Dan, 2 and all of Naphtali and the land of Ephraim and Manasseh and all of the land of Judah, up to the western sea,[fn] 3 and the Negev and the plain of the valley of Jericho, the city of palms, on up to Zoar. 4 And Yahweh said to him, “This is the land that I swore to Abraham to Isaac and to Jacob, saying,[fn] ‘To your offspring I will give it.’ I have let you see it with your eyes, but you shall not cross into it.”[fn] 5 Then Moses, the servant of Yahweh, died there in the land of Moab according to the command of Yahweh.[fn] 6 And he[fn] buried him in the valley in the land of Moab opposite Beth Peor. But until this day no one knows his burial site. 7 Now Moses was a hundred and twenty years old[fn] when he died;[fn] his sight was not impaired and his vigor had not abated.[fn] 8 And the Israelites[fn] wept concerning Moses thirty days; finally the days of weeping and mourning for Moses were completed.

9 Now[fn] Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom because Moses had placed his hands on him, and the Israelites[fn] listened to him, and they did as Yahweh had commanded Moses. 10 And not again[fn] has a prophet arisen in Israel like Moses, whom Yahweh knew[fn] face to face, 11 as far as all the signs and the wonders Yahweh sent him to do in the land of Egypt, against[fn] Pharaoh and all of his servants and against[fn] all of his land, 12 and as far as all of the mighty deeds[fn] and as far as the great awesome wonders[fn] Moses did before the eyes of all Israel.
