Deuteronomy 32:48 In-Context

46 he said to them: "Pay careful attention to all the words I have said to you today, and command your children to obey carefully everything in these teachings.

50 On that mountain that you climb, you will die and join your ancestors, just as your brother Aaron died on Mount Hor and joined his ancestors.
