Deuteronomy 32:48-52

New International Reader's Version

Moses Will Die on Mount Nebo

⁴⁸ On that same day the Lord said to Moses, ⁴⁹ “Go up into the Abarim mountains. Go to Mount Nebo in Moab. It is across from Jericho. From there look out over Canaan. It is the land I am giving the Israelites to take as their own. ⁵⁰ You will die there on the mountain you have climbed. You will join the members of your family who have already died. In the same way, your brother Aaron died on Mount Hor. He joined the members of his family who had already died. ⁵¹ You and Aaron disobeyed me in front of the Israelites. It happened at the waters of Meribah Kadesh in the Desert of Zin. You did not honor me among the Israelites as the holy God. ⁵² So you will see the land, but only from far away. You will not enter the land I am giving to the Israelites.”
