Ang Kamatayan ni Moises

34 Umahon si Moises mula sa kapatagan ng Moab patungo sa Bundok ng Nebo, sa taluktok ng Pisga, sa gawing silangan ng Jerico. Ipinakita sa kanya roon ni Yahweh ang buong lupain. Mula sa Gilead hanggang Dan, ang buong Neftali, ang lupain ng Efraim at Manases, ang buong lupain ng Juda hanggang sa Dagat ng Mediteraneo, ang katimugan at ang kapatagan, samakatuwid ay ang libis ng Jerico, ang lunsod ng mga palmera, hanggang Zoar. Sinabi(A) sa kanya ni Yahweh, “Iyan ang lupain na aking ipinangako sa iyong mga ninunong sina Abraham, Isaac at Jacob. Sinabi ko sa kanilang ibibigay ko ito sa kanilang lahi. Ipinakita ko ito sa iyo ngunit hindi mo mararating.”

At si Moises na lingkod ni Yahweh ay namatay sa lupain ng Moab, tulad ng sinabi ni Yahweh. Inilibing siya ni Yahweh sa isang libis sa Moab sa tapat ng Beth-peor, ngunit hanggang ngayo'y walang nakakaalam ng tiyak na lugar. Siya'y sandaa't dalawampung taóng gulang nang mamatay. Hindi lumabo ang kanyang paningin at hindi rin nanghina ang kanyang pangangatawan. Tatlumpung araw siyang ipinagluksa ng Israel sa kapatagan ng Moab.

Si Josue na anak ni Nun ay napuno ng karunungan sa pamamahala sapagkat ipinatong sa kanya ni Moises ang kanyang mga kamay. Sumunod sa kanya ang mga Israelita at ginawa nila ang lahat ng utos na ibinigay ni Yahweh sa pamamagitan ni Moises.

10 Mula(B) noon ay wala nang lumitaw sa Israel na propetang katulad ni Moises na nakipag-usap nang harap-harapan kay Yahweh. 11 Wala na ring nakagawa ng mga kababalaghang tulad ng ipinagawa sa kanya ni Yahweh sa Egipto, sa harapan ng Faraon at ng mga lingkod nito. 12 Walang ibang nakagawa ng makapangyarihan at pambihirang mga gawa tulad ng ginawa ni Moises sa harapan ng bayang Israel.

Moses Dies and Is Buried in the Land of Moab

34 Then Moses went up from the plains of Moab to Mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, which is opposite Jericho, and the Lord showed him the whole land: Gilead as far as Dan, all Naphtali, the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, all the land of Judah as far as the Western Sea, the Negeb, and the Plain—that is, the valley of Jericho, the city of palm trees—as far as Zoar. The Lord said to him, “This is the land of which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, ‘I will give it to your descendants.’ I have let you see it with your eyes, but you shall not cross over there.”(A) Then Moses, the servant of the Lord, died there in the land of Moab, at the Lord’s command.(B) He buried him in a valley in the land of Moab, opposite Beth-peor, but no one knows his burial place to this day. Moses was one hundred twenty years old when he died; his sight was unimpaired, and his vigor had not abated.(C) The Israelites wept for Moses in the plains of Moab thirty days; then the period of mourning for Moses was ended.

Joshua son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom because Moses had laid his hands on him, and the Israelites obeyed him, doing as the Lord had commanded Moses.(D)

10 Never since has there arisen a prophet in Israel like Moses, whom the Lord knew face to face.(E) 11 He was unequaled for all the signs and wonders that the Lord sent him to perform in the land of Egypt, against Pharaoh and all his servants and his entire land,(F) 12 and for all the mighty deeds and all the terrifying displays of power that Moses performed in the sight of all Israel.

The Death of Moses

34 Then Moses climbed Mount Nebo(A) from the plains of Moab to the top of Pisgah,(B) across from Jericho.(C) There the Lord showed(D) him the whole land—from Gilead to Dan,(E) all of Naphtali, the territory of Ephraim and Manasseh, all the land of Judah as far as the Mediterranean Sea,(F) the Negev(G) and the whole region from the Valley of Jericho, the City of Palms,(H) as far as Zoar.(I) Then the Lord said to him, “This is the land I promised on oath(J) to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob(K) when I said, ‘I will give it(L) to your descendants.’ I have let you see it with your eyes, but you will not cross(M) over into it.”

And Moses the servant of the Lord(N) died(O) there in Moab, as the Lord had said. He buried him[a] in Moab, in the valley opposite Beth Peor,(P) but to this day no one knows where his grave is.(Q) Moses was a hundred and twenty years old(R) when he died, yet his eyes were not weak(S) nor his strength gone.(T) The Israelites grieved for Moses in the plains of Moab(U) thirty days,(V) until the time of weeping and mourning(W) was over.

Now Joshua son of Nun was filled with the spirit[b] of wisdom(X) because Moses had laid his hands on him.(Y) So the Israelites listened to him and did what the Lord had commanded Moses.

10 Since then, no prophet(Z) has risen in Israel like Moses,(AA) whom the Lord knew face to face,(AB) 11 who did all those signs and wonders(AC) the Lord sent him to do in Egypt—to Pharaoh and to all his officials(AD) and to his whole land. 12 For no one has(AE) ever shown the mighty power or performed the awesome deeds(AF) that Moses did in the sight of all Israel.
