44 Moses and Joshua son of Nun came and sang all the words of this song for the Israelites to hear.
45 When Moses finished giving these teachings to the people,
46 he said to them, “You must be sure to pay attention to all the commands I tell you today. And you must tell your children to obey completely the commands in this Law.
47 Don’t think these teachings are not important. They are your life! Through these teachings you will live a long time in the land across the Jordan River that you are ready to take.”
48 The Lord spoke to Moses that same day. He said,
49 “Go to the Abarim Mountains. Go up on Mount Nebo in the land of Moab across from the city of Jericho. Then you can look at the land of Canaan that I am giving to the Israelites to live in.
50 You will die on that mountain. You will go to be with your people, the same as your brother Aaron died on Mount Hor.
