¶ Moses dyeth. Israell wepeth. Iosua succedeth in Moses roume.
CAPI. XXXIIII. [unspec A]
ANd * 1.1 Moses went from the playne of Moab vp in to mount Nebo, and vnto the top of * 1.2 the hyl that is ouer agaynst Iericho. And the Lorde shewed hym all the lande of Gilead, euen vnto Dan, & all Neph∣thali, and the lande of ☞ Ephraim and Ma∣nasse, and the lande of Iuda: euen vnto the vttermost see, and the south, and the region of the playn of Iericho / the Citie of paulme trees, euen vnto Zoar. And the Lorde sayde vnto hym. * 1.3 This is the lande which I sware vnto Abraham, Isaac and Iacob, sayenge: I wyll gyue it vnto thy seede. I haue caused the also to se it with thyne eyes, * 1.4 but thou shalte not go ouer thyther.
So Moses the seruaunt of the lorde dyed [unspec B] there in the lande of Moab accordyng to the worde of the Lorde. And he buryed hym in a valey in the lande of Moab ouer agaynste the house of Peor, but no mā knoweth of his sepulcre vnto this day. Moses was an hun∣dred and twentye yere olde when he dyed: his eye was not dym, nor his naturall coloure a∣bated. And the chyldren of Israel * 1.5 wepte for Moses in the playn of Moab thyrtie dayes. And the dayes of wepynge and mournynge for Moses were ended.
And Iosua the sonne of Nun was full of [unspec C] the spirite of wysdome: * 1.6 for Moses had put his handes vpon hym. And the chyldren of Israel were obedient vnto hym, and dyd as the Lorde cōmaunded Moses. And there a∣rose not a prophete synce in Israel lyke vnto Moses, whom the Lorde knewe face to face, accordynge vnto all the myracles and won∣ders whiche the Lorde sent hym to do in the lande of Egypte, vnto Pharao and all his seruauntes, and before all his lande: and ac∣cordynge to all that myghtye hande, and all the great visions, whiche Moses shewed in the syght of all Israell.
