< Torati 34 >
1 Kisha Mose akaupanda mlima Nebo kutoka tambarare za Moabu mpaka kilele cha Pisga, ngʼambo ya Yeriko. Huko Bwana akamwonyesha nchi yote: kutoka Gileadi mpaka Dani,
And Moses went up from the plains of Moab upon the mountain of Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, that is opposite Jericho. And the LORD showed him all the land of Gilead, to Dan,
2 Naftali yote, nchi ya Efraimu na Manase, nchi yote ya Yuda mpaka bahari ya magharibi,
And all Naphtali, and the land of Ephraim, and Manasseh, and all the land of Judah, to the utmost sea,
3 Negebu na nchi yote kuanzia Bonde la Yeriko, Mji wa Mitende, hadi Soari.
And the south, and the plain of the valley of Jericho, the city of palm trees, to Zoar.
4 Kisha Bwana akamwambia, “Hii ndiyo nchi niliyomwahidi Abrahamu na Isaki na Yakobo kwa kiapo niliposema, ‘Nitawapa wazao wako.’ Nimekuruhusu uione kwa macho yako, lakini hutavuka kuingia.”
And the LORD said to him, This is the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, I will give it to thy seed: I have caused thee to see it with thy eyes, but thou shalt not go over there.
5 Naye Mose mtumishi wa Bwana akafa huko Moabu, kama Bwana alivyokuwa amesema.
So Moses the servant of the LORD died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of the LORD.
6 Mungu akamzika huko Moabu, katika bonde mkabala na Beth-Peori, lakini hakuna ajuaye kaburi lake lilipo mpaka leo.
And he buried him in a valley in the land of Moab, opposite Bethpeor: but no man knoweth of his sepulchre to this day.
7 Mose alikuwa na umri wa miaka mia moja na ishirini alipofariki; hata hivyo nguvu ya macho yake haikufifia wala mwili wake haukudhoofika.
And Moses was an hundred and twenty years old when he died: his eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated.
8 Waisraeli wakaomboleza kwa ajili ya Mose kwenye tambarare za Moabu kwa siku thelathini, mpaka wakati wa kulia na kuomboleza ulipopita.
And the children of Israel wept for Moses in the plains of Moab thirty days: so the days of weeping and mourning for Moses were ended.
9 Basi Yoshua mwana wa Nuni alijazwa roho ya hekima kwa sababu Mose alikuwa ameweka mikono yake juu yake. Kwa hiyo Waisraeli wakamsikiliza na wakafanya yale ambayo Bwana alikuwa amemwagiza Mose.
And Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom; for Moses had laid his hands upon him: and the children of Israel hearkened to him, and did as the LORD commanded Moses.
10 Tangu wakati huo, katika Israeli hajainuka nabii mwingine kama Mose, ambaye Bwana alimjua uso kwa uso,
And there arose not a prophet since in Israel like Moses, whom the LORD knew face to face,
11 aliyetenda ishara zote zile za miujiza na maajabu ambayo Bwana alimtuma kuyatenda huko Misri, yaani kwa Farao na maafisa wake wote na nchi yake yote.
In all the signs and the wonders, which the LORD sent him to do in the land of Egypt to Pharaoh, and to all his servants, and to all his land,
12 Kwa kuwa hakuna mtu yeyote aliyewahi kuonyesha nguvu nyingi ama kutenda matendo ya kutisha ambayo Mose aliwahi kuyafanya mbele ya Israeli yote.
And in all that mighty hand, and in all the great terror which Moses showed in the sight of all Israel.
