Moses Is Not Permitted to Enter Canaan (DEU 3:23-29)

[3:23] “At that time I earnestly prayed,

[3:24] ‘Sovereign Lord, I know that you have shown me only the beginning of the great and wonderful things you are going to do. There is no god in heaven or on earth who can do the mighty things that you have done!

[3:25] Let me cross the Jordan River, Lord, and see the fertile land on the other side, the beautiful hill country and the Lebanon Mountains.’

[3:26] “But because of you people the Lord was angry with me and would not listen. Instead, he said, ‘That's enough! Don't mention this again!

[3:27] Go to the peak of Mount Pisgah and look to the north and to the south, to the east and to the west. Look carefully at what you see, because you will never go across the Jordan.

[3:28] Give Joshua his instructions. Strengthen his determination, because he will lead the people across to occupy the land that you see.’

[3:29] “So we remained in the valley opposite the town of Bethpeor.”
