Moses Forbidden to Enter the Land

23 “And I pleaded with the Lord at that time, saying, 24 ‘O Lord God, you have only begun to show your servant (A)your greatness and your mighty hand. For (B)what god is there in heaven or on earth who can do such works and mighty acts as yours? 25 Please let me go over and see (C)the good land beyond the Jordan, that good hill country and (D)Lebanon.’ 26 But (E)the Lord was angry with me because of you and would not listen to me. And the Lord said to me, (F)‘Enough from you; do not speak to me of this matter again. 27 (G)Go up to the top of Pisgah and lift up your eyes westward and northward and southward and eastward, and look at it with your eyes, for you shall not go over this Jordan. 28 But (H)charge Joshua, and encourage and strengthen him, for he shall go over at the head of this people, and he shall put them in possession of the land that you shall see.’ 29 So we remained in (I)the valley opposite Beth-peor.

23 “At that time I begged the Lord: 24 Lord God, You have begun to show Your greatness and power to Your servant, for what god is there in heaven or on earth who can perform deeds and mighty acts like Yours? 25 Please let me cross over and see the beautiful land(A) on the other side of the Jordan, that good hill country and Lebanon.

Do not speak to Me again about this matter. 27 Go to the top of Pisgah and look to the west, north, south, and east, and see it with your own eyes, for you will not cross this Jordan.(B) 28 But commission Joshua and encourage and strengthen him, for he will cross over ahead of the people and enable them to inherit this land that you will see.’(C) 29 So we stayed in the valley facing Beth-peor.
