²³ At that time I pleaded^(A) with the Lord: ²⁴ “Sovereign Lord, you have begun to show to your servant your greatness^(B) and your strong hand. For what god^(C) is there in heaven or on earth who can do the deeds and mighty works^(D) you do?^{(E) 25} Let me go over and see the good land^(F) beyond the Jordan—that fine hill country and Lebanon.^(G)”

Moses to Die on Mount Nebo

⁴⁸ On that same day the Lord told Moses,^{(A) 49} “Go up into the Abarim^(B) Range to Mount Nebo^(C) in Moab, across from Jericho,^(D) and view Canaan,^(E) the land I am giving the Israelites as their own possession. ⁵⁰ There on the mountain that you have climbed you will die^(F) and be gathered to your people, just as your brother Aaron died^(G) on Mount Hor^(H) and was gathered to his people. ⁵¹ This is because both of you broke faith with me in the presence of the Israelites at the waters of Meribah Kadesh^(I) in the Desert of Zin^(J) and because you did not uphold my holiness among the Israelites.^{(K) 52} Therefore, you will see the land only from a distance;^(L) you will not enter^(M) the land I am giving to the people of Israel.”
