B. THE DEATH OF MOSES

And Moses went up from the plains of Moab unto mount Nebo, to the top of

Pisgah, that is over against Jericho. And the Lord showed him all the

land.

And the Lord 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."

So Moses the servant of the Lord died there in the land of Moab,

according to the word of the Lord. And he buried him in the valley in

the land of Moab, but no man knoweth of his sepulchre unto this day. And

Moses was a hundred and twenty years old when he died: his eye was not

dim, nor his natural force abated. And the children of Israel wept for

Moses in the plains of Moab thirty days.

And there hath not arisen a prophet since in Israel like unto 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

land; and in all the mighty hand, and in all the great terror, which

Moses wrought in the sight of all Israel.
