23 “I also pleaded with the Lord at that time, saying, 24 ‘Lord [a]God, You have begun to show Your servant (A)Your greatness and Your strong hand; for what (B)god is there in heaven or on earth who can do such works and mighty acts as Yours? 25 Please let me cross over and see the (C)good land that is beyond the Jordan, [b]that good hill country, and Lebanon.’ 26 But (D)the Lord was angry with me on your account, and would not listen to me; instead, the Lord said to me, ‘[c]Enough! Do not speak to Me any more about this matter. 27 Go up to the top of (E)Pisgah and raise your eyes to the west, the north, the south, and the east, and see it with your eyes; (F)for you shall not cross over this Jordan.

23 At that time I pleaded(A) with the Lord: 24 “Sovereign Lord, you have begun to show to your servant your greatness(B) and your strong hand. For what god(C) is there in heaven or on earth who can do the deeds and mighty works(D) you do?(E) 25 Let me go over and see the good land(F) beyond the Jordan—that fine hill country and Lebanon.(G)

26 But because of you the Lord was angry(H) with me and would not listen to me. “That is enough,” the Lord said. “Do not speak to me anymore about this matter. 27 Go up to the top of Pisgah(I) and look west and north and south and east.(J) Look at the land with your own eyes, since you are not going to cross(K) this Jordan.(L)

48 Now (A)the Lord spoke to Moses that very same day, saying, 49 (B)Go up to this mountain of the Abarim, Mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab [a]opposite Jericho, and look at the land of Canaan, which I am giving to the sons of Israel as a possession. 50 Then you are to die on the mountain where you ascend, and be (C)gathered to your people, as Aaron your brother died on Mount Hor and was gathered to his people, 51 (D)because you broke faith with Me in the midst of the sons of Israel at the waters of Meribah-kadesh, in the (E)wilderness of Zin, because you did not treat Me as holy in the midst of the sons of Israel. 52 (F)For you will see the land at a distance but (G)you will not go there, into the land which I am giving the sons of Israel.”

Moses to Die on Mount Nebo

48 On that same day the Lord told Moses,(A) 49 “Go up into the Abarim(B) Range to Mount Nebo(C) in Moab, across from Jericho,(D) and view Canaan,(E) the land I am giving the Israelites as their own possession. 50 There on the mountain that you have climbed you will die(F) and be gathered to your people, just as your brother Aaron died(G) on Mount Hor(H) and was gathered to his people. 51 This is because both of you broke faith with me in the presence of the Israelites at the waters of Meribah Kadesh(I) in the Desert of Zin(J) and because you did not uphold my holiness among the Israelites.(K) 52 Therefore, you will see the land only from a distance;(L) you will not enter(M) the land I am giving to the people of Israel.”
