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,1 Then Moses went up from the plains of Moab to Mount Nebo, the headland of Pisgah which faces Jericho, and the LORD showed him all the land-Gilead, and as far as Dan,
2 and all of Naphtali, and the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, and the entire land of Judah, even to the furthest sea,2 all Naphtali, the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, all the land of Judah as far as the Western Sea,
3 and the southern region, and the breadth of the plain of Jericho, the city of palms, as far as Zoar.3 the Negeb, the circuit of the Jordan with the lowlands at Jericho, city of palms, and as far as 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.”4 The LORD then said to him, "This is the land which I swore to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob that I would give to their descendants. I have let you feast your eyes upon it, but you shall not cross over."
5 And Moses, the servant of the Lord, died in that place, in the land of Moab, by order of the Lord.5 So there, in the land of Moab, Moses, the servant of the LORD, died 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.6 and he was buried in the ravine opposite Beth-peor in the land of Moab, but to this day no one knows the place of his burial.
7 Moses was one hundred and twenty years old when he died. His eye was not dimmed, nor were his teeth displaced.7 Moses was one hundred and twenty years old when he died, yet his eyes were undimmed and his vigor unabated.
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.8 For thirty days the Israelites wept for Moses in the plains of Moab, till they had completed the period of grief and mourning for Moses.
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.9 Now Joshua, son of Nun, was filled with the spirit of wisdom, since Moses had laid his hands upon him; and so the Israelites gave him their obedience, thus carrying out the LORD'S command to Moses.
10 And no other prophet rose up in Israel like Moses, one whom the Lord knew face to face,10 Since then no prophet has arisen in Israel like Moses, whom the LORD knew face to face.
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,11 He had no equal in all the signs and wonders the LORD sent him to perform in the land of Egypt against Pharaoh and all his servants and against all his land,
12 nor one with such a powerful hand and such great miracles as Moses did in the sight of all Israel.12 and for the might and the terrifying power that Moses exhibited in the sight of all Israel.
