Moses sees promised land and is taken by the Lord—Joshua leads Israel—Moses was Israel’s greatest prophet.
1 - And Moses went up from the plains of Moab unto the mountain of Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, that is over against Jericho. And the L ORD shewed him all the land of Gilead, unto Dan,
2 - And all Naphtali, and the land of Ephraim, and Manasseh, and all the land of Judah, unto the utmost sea,
3 - And the south, and the plain of the valley of Jericho, the city of palm trees, unto Zoar.
4 - And the L ORD said unto him, This is the land which I sware unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, saying, I will give it unto thy seed: I have caused thee to see it with thine eyes, but thou shalt not go over thither.
5 - ¶ So Moses the servant of the L ORD died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of the L ORD.
6 - And he buried him in a valley in the land of Moab, over against Beth-peor: but no man knoweth of his sepulchre unto this day.
7 - ¶ And Moses was an hundred and twenty years old when he died: his eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated.
8 - ¶ And the children of Israel wept for Moses in the plains of Moab thirty days: so the days of weeping and mourning for Moses were ended.
9 - ¶ And Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom; for Moses had laid his hands upon him: and the children of Israel hearkened unto him, and did as the L ORD commanded Moses.
10 - ¶ And there arose not a prophet since in Israel like unto Moses, whom the L ORD knew face to face,
11 - In all the signs and the wonders, which the L ORD sent him to do in the land of Egypt to Pharaoh, and to all his servants, and to all his land,
12 - And in all that mighty hand, and in all the great terror which Moses shewed in the sight of all Israel.
