< Deuteronomy 34 >

1 Then Moses climbed up from the plains in the Moab [region] to the top of Pisgah Peak on Nebo Mountain, across [the Jordan River] from Jericho. There Yahweh showed him all the land [that the Israelis would occupy]. He showed him the Gilead [region] as far north as Dan [city];
梅瑟由摩阿布曠野上了乃波山,上到耶里哥對面的丕斯加峰,上主就將全地指給他看:即由基肋阿得直到丹,
2 all [the land that the tribe of] Naphtali would occupy; all the land [that the tribes] of Ephraim and Manasseh [had occupied]; all the land [that the tribe of] Judah would occupy as far west as the Mediterranean sea;
納斐塔里和厄弗辣因及默納協全地,直達西海的猶大全境,
3 the desert [area in the south part of Judah]; and the [Jordan] Valley that extends from Jericho [in the north] to Zoar [city in the south].
乃革布和棕櫚城的耶里哥山谷盆地,直到左哈爾。
4 Then Yahweh said to him, “You have now seen this land that I solemnly promised to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying ‘I will give it to your descendants.’ I have allowed you to see it [from a distance], but you will not go there.”
上主對他說:「這就是我對亞巴郎、依撒格和雅各伯誓許說我要給你後裔的土地。我讓你親眼看見,但你不能過去。」
5 So Moses, who [always] served Yahweh [faithfully], died there [on that mountain] in the Moab [region], which is what Yahweh said would happen.
上主的僕人梅瑟遂死在那裏,按上主所預定的,死在摩阿布地。
6 Yahweh buried Moses’ body in a valley in the Moab [region], opposite/near Beth-Peor [town], but no one to this day knows where Yahweh buried him.
上主將他葬在摩阿布地,面對貝特培敖爾的一個山谷內;直到今日沒有人知道埋葬他的地方。
7 Moses was 120 years old when he died, but he was still very strong, and he could still see [MTY] very well.
梅瑟死時,已一百二十歲;他的眼睛未花,精力也未衰退。
8 The Israeli people mourned for him in the plains of the Moab [region] for 30 days.
以色列子民在摩阿布曠野哀悼了梅瑟三十日。為梅瑟舉哀的日期滿了,
9 God caused Joshua to be very wise, because Moses had put his hands on Joshua [to appoint him to be their new leader]. The Israeli people obeyed Joshua, and they obeyed all the commands that Yahweh had given to Moses to tell to the Israeli people.
農的兒子若蘇厄,因梅瑟曾按手在他身上,充滿了智慧之神;為此,以色列子民都聽從他,全照上主向梅瑟所吩咐的去行。
10 Since the time that Moses [lived], there has never been a prophet in Israel like him. Yahweh spoke to him face-to-face/directly.
以後在以色列中,再沒有興起一位像梅瑟一樣的先知,與上主面對面地來往;
11 No other prophet has performed all the kinds of [DOU] miracles that Yahweh sent Moses to perform in front of the king of Egypt, his officials, and all [HYP] the people of Egypt.
至於上主派他在埃及地,向法郎,和他的一切臣僕,並向他全地所行的一切神蹟和奇蹟,
12 No other prophet has been able to do all the great and terrifying things that Moses did while all the Israelis watched.
以及他在全以色列眼前所行的一切大能作為,和一切令人畏懼的大事,也沒有人能與他相比。
