1Moses climbed Mount Nebo. Moses went from the Jordan Valley in Moab to the top of Mount Pisgah. This was across the Jordan River from Jericho. The Lord showed Moses all the land from Gilead to Dan.

2The Lord showed him all the land of Naphtali, Ephraim, and Manasseh. He showed him all the land of Judah as far as the Mediterranean Sea.

3The Lord showed Moses the Negev and the valley that goes from Zoar to Jericho, the city of palm trees.

4The Lord said to Moses, "This is the land I promised to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. I said to them, 'I will give this land to your descendants. I have let you see the land, but you cannot go there.'"

5Then Moses, the Lord's servant, died there in the land of Moab. The Lord had told Moses this would happen.

6The Lord buried Moses in Moab. This was in the valley across from Beth Peor. But even today no one knows exactly where Moses' grave is.

7Moses was 120 years old when he died. He was as strong as ever, and his eyes were still good.

8The Israelites cried for Moses for 30 days. They stayed in the Jordan Valley in Moab until the time of sadness was finished.

9Moses had put his hands on Joshua and appointed him to be the new leader. Then Joshua son of Nun was filled with the spirit of wisdom. So the Israelites began to obey Joshua, and they did what the Lord had commanded Moses.

10Israel never had another prophet like Moses: The Lord knew Moses face to face.

11The Lord sent Moses to do powerful miracles in the land of Egypt. Pharaoh, all his officers, and all the people in Egypt saw those miracles.

12No other prophet ever did as many powerful and amazing things as Moses did for the Israelites to see.
