Deuteronomy 34

1 Therefore, Moses ascended from the plains of Moab onto Mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, opposite Jericho. And the Lord revealed to him the entire land of Gilead, as far as Dan,

Moses left the plains of Moab and went to Mount Nebo, climbing right to the top of Pisgah that faces in the direction of Jericho. The Lord showed him the whole country, from Gilead all the way to Dan.

2 and all of Naphtali, and the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, and the entire land of Judah, even to the furthest sea,

This included all the territories of Naphtali, Ephraim and Manasseh, Judah as far as the Mediterranean Sea,

3 and the southern region, and the breadth of the plain of Jericho, the city of palms, as far as Zoar.

the Negev, and the Jordan Valley from Jericho (the city of palms) down to Zoar.

4 And the Lord said to him: “This is the land, about which I swore to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying: I will give it to your offspring. You have seen it with your eyes, but you shall not cross over to it.”

The Lord told him, “This is the country I solemnly promised to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob when I said, ‘I'm giving it to your descendants.’ I have allowed you to see it for yourself, but you're not going to enter it.”

5 And Moses, the servant of the Lord, died in that place, in the land of Moab, by order of the Lord.

Moses, the servant of the Lord, died there in the country of Moab, just as the Lord had said.

6 And he buried him in the valley of the land of Moab, opposite Peor. And no man knows where his sepulcher is, even to the present day.

He buried him in a valley there in Moab that is opposite Beth-peor, but no one knows to this day where Moses' grave is.

7 Moses was one hundred and twenty years old when he died. His eye was not dimmed, nor were his teeth displaced.

Moses was 120 when he died, yet he was still seeing clearly and he was still strong.

8 And the sons of Israel wept for him in the plains of Moab for thirty days. And then the days of their wailing, during which they mourned Moses, were completed.

The Israelites mourned for Moses on the plains of Moab for thirty days, until the time of mourning was over.

9 Truly, Joshua, the son of Nun, was filled with the spirit of wisdom, for Moses had laid his hands upon him. And the sons of Israel were obedient to him, and they did as the Lord instructed Moses.

Joshua, son of Nun, was filled with the spirit of wisdom because Moses had placed his hands on him to dedicate him. The Israelites paid attention to him, and followed the instructions the Lord had given to Moses.

10 And no other prophet rose up in Israel like Moses, one whom the Lord knew face to face,

Since then there has never been a prophet in Israel like Moses who was the Lord's close friend.

11 one with all the signs and wonders, which he sent through him, to perform in the land of Egypt, against Pharaoh, and all his servants, and his entire land,

The Lord sent him to carry out all the signs and miracles in Egypt to convince Pharaoh and his officials, and all the people in the country.

12 nor one with such a powerful hand and such great miracles as Moses did in the sight of all Israel.

Moses did these amazing things with tremendous power as the Israelites watched.
