Moses Dies
1Moses climbed Mount Nebo. He went up from the plains of Moab to the highest slopes of Pisgah. It’s across from Jericho. At Pisgah the Lord showed him the whole land from Gilead all the way to Dan. 2Moses saw the whole land of Naphtali. He saw the territory of Ephraim and Manasseh. The Lord showed him the whole land of Judah all the way to the Mediterranean Sea. 3Moses saw the Negev Desert. He saw the whole area from the Valley of Jericho all the way to Zoar. Jericho was also known as The City of Palm Trees. 4Then the Lord spoke to Moses. He said, “This is the land I promised to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. I told them, ‘I will give this land to your children and their children.’ Moses, I have let you see it with your own eyes. But you will not go across the Jordan River to enter it.”
5Moses, the servant of the Lord, died there in Moab. It happened just as the Lord had said. 6The Lord buried the body of Moses in Moab. His grave is in the valley across from Beth Peor. But to this day no one knows where his grave is. 7Moses was 120 years old when he died. But his eyesight was still good. He was still very strong. 8The Israelites mourned over Moses on the plains of Moab for 30 days. They did it until their time for weeping and crying was over.
9Joshua, the son of Nun, was filled with wisdom. That’s because Moses had placed his hands on him. So the Israelites listened to Joshua. They did what the Lord had commanded Moses.
10Since then, Israel has never had a prophet like Moses. The Lord knew him face to face. 11Moses did many signs and amazing things. The Lord had sent him to do them in Egypt. Moses did them against Pharaoh, against all his officials and against his whole land. 12No one has ever had the mighty power Moses had. No one has ever done the wonderful acts he did in the sight of all the Israelites.
摩西去世
1摩西從摩押平原登上尼波山，上到耶利哥對面的毗斯迦山頂。耶和華把整片土地指給他看，從基列一直到但， 2拿弗他利全境、以法蓮和瑪拿西地區，遠至地中海的猶大全境， 3南地和棕櫚城耶利哥的谷地，遠至瑣珥。 4耶和華對摩西說：「這便是我向亞伯拉罕、以撒和雅各起誓要賜給他們子孫的土地。現在我讓你親眼看到了，但你不能進入。」
5於是，耶和華的僕人摩西死在摩押，正如耶和華所言。 6耶和華把他安葬在摩押境內伯·毗珥對面的山谷，至今無人知道摩西的墳墓在哪裡。 7摩西去世時一百二十歲，眼睛沒有昏花，精力沒有衰敗。 8以色列人在摩押平原為摩西致哀三十天，服喪的日子才結束。
9嫩的兒子約書亞充滿了智慧之靈，因為摩西曾把手按在他身上。以色列人都聽從他，遵守耶和華對摩西的吩咐。
10此後，以色列再也沒有出現像摩西那樣的先知，他曾面見耶和華， 11奉耶和華的命令在埃及行神蹟奇事，懲罰法老及其臣僕和國民， 12在以色列人面前行偉大而可畏的事。
