45 When Mosheh had finished telling all that to all Yisrael, 46 he told them, “Never forget all those instructions that I’ve been giving you today. Teach them to your children so that they’ll be able to keep following them, 47 because it’s no light matter for you all. Yes, it’s your lives, and by doing that you can prolong your time in the land which you are crossing over the Yarden river to take possession of.”

48 That same day, Yahweh told Mosheh,[ref] 49 “Go to Mt. Nebo (a mountain in the Abarim range in Moav, across from Yeriho). Climb up and you will see the land of Canaan, which I’m giving to the Israelis to take possession of. 50 Then you’ll die on that mountain that you are going up on, and you’ll join your ancestors (just like your brother Aharon died on Mt. Hor and joined his ancestors). 51 That’s because you were unfaithful to me among the Israelis at the Meribah springs in Kadesh, in the wilderness of Tsin, because you didn’t regard me as holy in front of the Israelis. 52 So you’ll see the land in front of you, but you won’t enter that land that I’m giving to the Israelis.
