Deuteronomy 34:6

MoabBeth-peorMoab
Death and loss

4 And the LORD said to him, “This is the land that I swore to give Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob when I said, ‘I will give it to your descendants.’ I have let you see it with your own eyes, but you will not cross into it.”

5 So Moses the servant of the LORD died there in the land of Moab, as the LORD had said.

And He buried him in a valley in the land of Moab facing Beth-peor, and no one to this day knows the location of his grave.

7 Moses was a hundred and twenty years old when he died, yet his eyes were not weak, and his vitality had not diminished.

8 The Israelites grieved for Moses in the plains of Moab thirty days, until the time of weeping and mourning for Moses came to an end.
