ثُمَّ صَعِدَ موسى مِن بَرِّيَّةِ موآب، إِلى جَبَلِ نَبو، إِلى قِمَّةِ الفِسْجَة، تُجاهَ أَريحا. فأَراه الرَّبُّ الأَرضَ كُلَّها: مِن جِلْعادَ إِلى دان

نَفْتالِيَ كُلَّها وأَرضَ أَفْرائيمَ ومَنَسَّى، وأَرضَ يَهوذا كُلَّها، إِلى البَحرِ الغَرْبِيّ

والنَّقَبَ وناحِيَةَ وادي أَريحا، مَدينَةِ النَّخْل، إِلى صوعَر

وقالَ لَه الرَّبّ: «هٰذه هيَ الأَرضُ الَّتي أَقسَمتُ لِإِبْراهيمَ وإِسحٰقَ ويَعْقوبَ قائِلًا: لِنَسْلِكَ أُعْطيها. قد أَرَيتُكَ إِيَّاها بِعَينَيكَ، ولٰكِنَّكَ إِلى هُناكَ لا تَعبُر»

فماتَ هُناكَ موسى، عَبدُ الرَّبِّ، في أَرضِ موآب، بِأَمرِ الرَّبّ

ودَفَنَه في الوادي في أَرضِ موآب، تُجاهَ بَيتِ فَغور. ولم يَعرِفْ أَحَدٌ قَبرَه إِلى يَومِنا هٰذا

وكانَ موسى ٱبنَ مِئَةٍ وعِشْرينَ سَنةً، حينَ ماتَ، ولم يَكِلَّ بَصَرُه ولم تَذهَبْ نَضرَتُه

فبَكى بَنو إِسْرائيلَ على موسى، في بَرِّيَّةِ موآب، ثَلاثينَ يَومًا، إِلى أَنِ ٱنقَضَت أَيَّامُ الحُزنِ على موسى

أَمَّا يَشوعُ بنُ نون، فمُلِئَ روحَ حِكمَة، لِأَنَّ موسى وَضَعَ علَيه يَدَيه، فأَطاعَه بَنو إِسْرائيل، وعَمِلوا كما أَمَرَ الرَّبُّ موسى

ولم يَقُم مِن بَعدُ في إِسْرائيلَ نَبِيٌّ كموسى الَّذي عَرَفَه الرَّبُّ وَجْهًا لِوَجْه

في جَميعِ الآياتِ والخَوارِقِ الَّتي أَرسَلَه الرَّبُّ لِيَصنَعَها في أَرضِ مِصرَ بِفِرعونَ وجَميعِ رِجالِه وكُلِّ أَرضِه

وفي كُلِّ يَدٍ قَوِيَّة وكُلِّ مَخافةٍ عَظيمةٍ صَنَعَها موسى على عُيونِ إِسْرائيلَ كُلِّه

Moses went up from the plains of Moab to Mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, that is opposite Jericho. The LORD showed him all the land of Gilead to Dan,

and all Naphtali, and the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, and all the land of Judah, to the Western Sea,

and the south, and the Plain of the valley of Jericho the city of palm trees, to Zoar.

The LORD 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.”

So Moses the servant of the LORD died there in the land of Moab, according to the LORD’s word.

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.

Moses was one hundred twenty years old when he died. His eye was not dim, nor his strength gone.

The children of Israel wept for Moses in the plains of Moab thirty days, until the days of weeping in the mourning for Moses were ended.

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 the LORD commanded Moses.

Since then, there has not arisen a prophet in Israel like Moses, whom the LORD knew face to face,

in all the signs and the wonders which the LORD sent him to do in the land of Egypt, to Pharaoh, and to all his servants, and to all his land,

and in all the mighty hand, and in all the awesome deeds, which Moses did in the sight of all Israel.
