Deuteronomy · Chapter 34

[ edit] Aſcende þanne Moyſes fro þe wijlde feeldys of Moab, vpon þe hil of Nebo, in to þe cop of Phaſga, aȝens Jericho. And þe Lord ſhewide to hym al þe loond of Galaad vnto Dan, and al Neptalym, and þe loond of Effraym and Manaſſe, and al þe loond of Juda, vnto þe laſt ſee; and þe ſowþ paart, and þe breede of þe feeld of Jericho, cyte of Palmys vnto Seor. And þe Lord ſeide to hym, Þis is þe loond for þe which Y ſwore to Abraham, Yſaac, and Jacob, ſeiynge, To þi ſeed I ſhal ȝyue it; þow haſt ſeen it wiþ þin eyen, and þow ſhalt not paſſe to it. And þanne Moyſes, þe ſeruaunt of þe Lord, dyed þere, in þe loond of Moab, comaundynge þe Lord.

And he biryede hym in þe valey of þe loond of Moab, aȝens Phegor; and no man knewe þe ſepulcre of hym vnto þe day þat is now. Moyſes of an hundrid and twenty ȝeeris was whanne he diede; þe eyȝe of hym daſwed not, ne þe teeþ of hym ben meued. And þe children of Irael wepten hym in þe wijlde feeldis of Moab þretti dais; and fulfillyd ben þe dais of mournynge of hem weylynge Moiſes. Forſoþe Joſue, þe ſone of Nun, is fulfillid wiþ þe ſpyryt of wiſdom, for Moyſes putte on hym his hoondis; and to him obeiſhiden þe ſones of Yrael, and diden as þe Lord comaundide to Moyſes.

And þere roos not a prophete ferþermore in Yrael as Moyſes, whom þe Lord knewe face to face, in alle ſygnes and wondres, þe whiche bi hym he ſente, þat he ſhulde doo in þe loond of Egipte to Pharao, and to alle þe ſeruauntis of hym, and to al þe loond of hym; and al ſtrong hoond, and greet merueyls, þat Moiſes dide before al Irael.
