UDutheronomi 34

1 UMozisi wasesenyuka esuka emagcekeni akoMowabi, esiya entabeni yeNebo, engqongeni yePisiga, emaqondana leJeriko. INkosi yasimtshengisa ilizwe lonke, iGileyadi kuze kube koDani,

2 layo yonke iNafithali, lelizwe lakoEfrayimi, leManase, lelizwe lonke lakoJuda, kwaze kwaba selwandle lokucina,

3 leningizimu, legceke lesigodi seJeriko, umuzi wamalala, kwaze kwaba seZowari.

4 INkosi yasisithi kuye: Leli yilizwe engalifungela uAbrahama, uIsaka, loJakobe ngisithi: Ngizalinika inzalo yakho. Sengikwenze walibona ngamehlo akho, kodwa kawuyikuchaphela kilo.

5 UMozisi inceku yeNkosi wasefela khona elizweni lakoMowabi njengokomlayo weNkosi.

6 Yasimngcwaba esigodini elizweni lakoMowabi maqondana leBeti-Peyori; kodwa kakulamuntu olaziyo ingcwaba lakhe kuze kube lamuhla.

7 Njalo uMozisi wayeleminyaka elikhulu lamatshumi amabili ekufeni kwakhe. Amehlo akhe ayengafiphalanga, lamandla akhe ayenganyamalalanga.

8 Abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebemlilela uMozisi emagcekeni akoMowabi insuku ezingamatshumi amathathu; zaphela-ke insuku zokukhala zokumlilela uMozisi.

9 Njalo uJoshuwa indodana kaNuni wayegcwele umoya wokuhlakanipha, ngoba uMozisi wayebekile izandla zakhe phezu kwakhe. Ngakho abantwana bakoIsrayeli bamlalela, benza njengalokhu iNkosi imlayile uMozisi.

10 Kakusavelanga-ke umprofethi koIsrayeli onjengoMozisi, iNkosi eyamazi ubuso ngobuso,

11 ngazo zonke izibonakaliso lezimangaliso iNkosi eyamthuma ukuthi azenze elizweni leGibhithe, kuFaro lakuzo zonke inceku zakhe lelizweni lakhe lonke,

12 langaso sonke lesosandla esilamandla langakho konke okwesabekayo okukhulu uMozisi akwenzayo phambi kwamehlo kaIsrayeli wonke.
