1 Moshe ascended from the plains of Mo'av to Mount N'vo, to the summit of Pisgah, across from Yericho. There ADONAI showed him all the land -Gil'ad as far as Dan,
1
And Moses went up from the table-lands of Moab to Mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah which is facing Jericho. And the Lord let him see all the land, the land of Gilead as far as Dan;
2 all Naftali, the land of Efrayim and M'nasheh, the land of Y'hudah all the way to the sea beyond,
2
And all Naphtali and the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, and all the land of Judah, as far as the Great Sea of the west;
3 the Negev, and the 'Aravah, including the valley where Yericho, the City of Date-Palms, as far away as Tzo'ar.
3
And the South, and the circle of the valley of Jericho, the town of palm-trees, as far as Zoar.
4 ADONAI said to him, "This is the land concerning which I swore to Avraham, Yitz'chak and Ya'akov, 'I will give it to your descendants.' I have let you see it with your eyes, but you will not cross over there."
4
And the Lord said to him, This is the land about which I made an oath to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying, I will give it to your seed: now I have let you see it with your eyes, but you will not go in there.
5 So Moshe, the servant of ADONAI, died there in the land of Mo'av, as ADONAI had said.
5
So death came to Moses, the servant of the Lord, there in the land of Moab, as the Lord had said.
6 He was buried in the valley across from Beit-P'or in the land of Mo'av, but to this day no one knows where his grave is.
6
And the Lord put him to rest in the valley in the land of Moab opposite Beth-peor: but no man has knowledge of his resting-place to this day.
7 Moshe was 120 years old when he died, with eyes undimmed and vigor undiminished.
7
And Moses at his death was a hundred and twenty years old: his eye had not become clouded, or his natural force become feeble.
8 The people of Isra'el mourned Moshe on the plains of Mo'av for thirty days; after this, the days of crying and mourning for Moshe ended.
8
For thirty days the children of Israel were weeping for Moses in the table-lands of Moab, till the days of weeping and sorrow for Moses were ended.
9 Y'hoshua the son of Nun was full of the Spirit of wisdom, for Moshe had laid his hands on him, and the people of Isra'el heeded him and did what ADONAI had ordered Moshe.
9
And Joshua, the son of Nun, was full of the spirit of wisdom; for Moses had put his hands on him: and the children of Israel gave ear to him, and did as the Lord had given orders to Moses.
10 Since that time there has not arisen in Isra'el a prophet like Moshe, whom ADONAI knew face to face.
10
There has never been another prophet in Israel like Moses, whom the Lord had knowledge of face to face;
11 What signs and wonders ADONAI sent him to perform in the land of Egypt upon Pharaoh, all his servants and all his land!
11
In all the signs and wonders which the Lord sent him to do in the land of Egypt, to Pharaoh and to all his servants and all his land;
12 What might was in his hand! What great terror he evoked before the eyes of all Isra'el!
12
And in all the acts of power and fear which Moses did before the eyes of all Israel.
