46. he said to them: “Pay attention to all the words I have said to you today. Command your children to obey carefully everything in these teachings.
47. These should not be unimportant words for you. They mean life for you! By these words you will live a long time in the land you are crossing the Jordan River to own.”
48. The Lord spoke to Moses again that same day. He said,
49. “Go up the Abarim Mountains. Go to Mount Nebo in the country of Moab. It is across from Jericho. Look at the land of Canaan. I am giving it to the Israelites to own.
50. You will die on that mountain that you climb. This is how your brother Aaron died on Mount Hor.
51. You both sinned against me at the waters of Meribah Kadesh. That is in the Desert of Zin. You did not honor me as holy there among the Israelites.
52. So now you will only look at the land from far away. You will not enter the land I am giving the people of Israel.”
