The In-Dept Study of the Bible
Deuteronomy 34
1 Moses went up from the plains of Moab
to Mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, that is
opposite Jericho. Yahweh showed him all
the land of Gilead to Dan,
2 and all Naphtali, and the land of
Ephraim and Manasseh, and all the land of
Judah, to the Western Sea,
3 and the south,† and the Plain of the
valley of Jericho the city of palm trees, to
Zoar.
4 Yahweh said to him, “This is the land
which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and
to Jacob, saying, ‘I will give it to your offspring.’ I have caused you to see it with
your eyes, but you shall not go over there.”
5 So Moses the servant of Yahweh died
there in the land of Moab, according to
Yahweh’s word.
6 He buried him in the valley in the land
of Moab opposite Beth Peor, but no man
knows where his tomb is to this day.
7 Moses was one hundred twenty years
old when he died. His eye was not dim, nor
his strength gone.
8 The children of Israel wept for Moses
in the plains of Moab thirty days, until the
days of weeping inthemourning forMoses
were ended.
9 Joshua the son of Nun was full of the
spirit of wisdom, for Moses had laid his
hands on him. The children of Israel listened to him, and did as Yahweh commanded Moses.
10 Since then, there has not arisen a
prophet in Israel like Moses, whom Yahweh knew face to face,
11 in all the signs and the wonders which
Yahweh sent him to do in the land of Egypt,
to Pharaoh, and to all his servants, and to
all his land,
12 and in all the mighty hand, and in all
the awesome deeds, which Moses did in
the sight of all Israel.
