And all Naphtali and the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, and all the land of Iudah, vnto the vtmost sea:

And the South, and the plaine of the valley of Iericho, the citie of palmetrees, vnto Zoar.

And the Lord said vnto him, This is the lande which I sware vnto Abraham, to Izhak and to Iaacob saying, I will giue it vnto thy seede: I haue caused thee to see it with thine eyes, but thou shalt not goe ouer thither.

So Moses the seruant of the Lord dyed there in the land of Moab, according to the worde of the Lord.

And hee buried him in a valley in the land of Moab ouer against Beth-peor, but no man knoweth of his sepulchre vnto this day.

And Ioshua the sonne of Nun was full of ye spirit of wisedome: for Moses had put his hands vpon him. And the children of Israel were obedient vnto him, and did as the Lord had commanded Moses.

But there arose not a Prophet since in Israel like vnto Moses (whome the Lord knew face to face)

In all ye miracles and wonders which ye Lord sent him to do in ye land of Egypt before Pharaoh and before all his seruantes, and before al his land,

And in all that mightie hand and all that great feare, which Moses wrought in the sight of all Israel.

Moses went up from the plains of Moab to Mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, that is opposite Jericho. The LORD showed him all the land of Gilead to Dan,

and all Naphtali, and the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, and all the land of Judah, to the Western Sea,

and the south,(a) and the Plain of the valley of Jericho the city of palm trees, to Zoar.

The LORD said to him, “This is the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, ‘I will give it to your offspring.’ I have caused you to see it with your eyes, but you shall not go over there.”

So Moses the servant of the LORD died there in the land of Moab, according to the LORD’s word.

He buried him in the valley in the land of Moab opposite Beth Peor, but no man knows where his tomb is to this day.

Moses was one hundred twenty years old when he died. His eye was not dim, nor his strength gone.

The children of Israel wept for Moses in the plains of Moab thirty days, until the days of weeping in the mourning for Moses were ended.

Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom, for Moses had laid his hands on him. The children of Israel listened to him, and did as the LORD commanded Moses.

Since then, there has not arisen a prophet in Israel like Moses, whom the LORD knew face to face,

in all the signs and the wonders which the LORD sent him to do in the land of Egypt, to Pharaoh, and to all his servants, and to all his land,

and in all the mighty hand, and in all the awesome deeds, which Moses did in the sight of all Israel.
