| And when the last end of Mosheh the prophet
was at hand, that he should be gathered from among the
world, he said in his heart: I will not attest against this
people with witnesses that taste of death in this world,
behold, I attest against them with witnesses which do not
taste of death in this world, and whose destination is to be
renewed in the world to come. Isaiah the prophet, when
he prophesied in the congregation of Israel, attributed
hearing to the heavens, and attentiveness to the earth;
because (in his case) earth was nearest and heaven more
remote: but Mosheh the prophet, when he now
prophesied in the congregation of Israel, attributed hearing
to the earth, and attentiveness to the heavens; because (in
his case) heaven was nearest and earth more remote;
for so it is written, Attend, ye heavens, and I will speak;
and hear, earth, the words of my mouth.

| When the end of Mosheh came, that
he should be removed from the world, he said: Behold,
I testify in this world a thing which tasteth not of
death; so will I attest against them the heavens and
earth which taste not of death in this world, but whose
end is to be consumed in the world that cometh. For
so he explained, and said: Lift up your eyes to the
heavens, and consider the earth beneath; for the
heavens shall dissolve like smoke, and the earth fade
away as a garment; but I have prepared to create new
heavens and a new earth. Isaiah the prophet, when he
prophesied in the congregation of Israel, because he was
remote from the heavens and nearest the earth,
attributed hearing to the heavens, and attention to the
earth: for so he explaineth, and saith: Hear,
heavens, and listen, earth; for the Word of the Lord
hath spoken. Mosheh the prophet, &c. (as above.)

the wrath of the enemy would wax strong, that they
could not prevail against their foes; and that they may
not say, Our hand hath avenged us on our adversaries,
and it hath not been done by the Lord;
|

| For they are a nation void of counsel,
And there is no understanding in them.

understanding in them.

what will be in their end!

And two put ten thousand to flight,
Except their Rock had given them over
And the LORD had delivered them up?

thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, unless the
Mighty One had delivered them up, and the Lord had
requited them!

thousand of them, and two put ten thousand of them

| When
Israel was diligent in the law, and observed the
commandments, one of them chased a thousand, and two of
them put ten thousand to flight; but because they have
sinned and vexed the Almighty to anger, He hath left
them to the hand of their enemies.

enemies are the judges.

| For the idols of the Gentiles are not as He who is the
Strength of Israel; for the Strength of Israel, when they
have sinned, bringeth punishment upon them; but when
they stretch forth their hands in prayer, He answereth
and delivereth them. But the idols of the peoples of
strange worships are of no use: but because we have
provoked Him, and have not returned to His service,
our adversaries are our witnesses and our judges.

| For the confidence of the nations is not as our
confidence; but because we have sinned and provoked
Him to anger, our adversaries are made our judges.

people of Sedom will their punishment be, and their
stroke like (that) of the people of Amorah; their
plagues will be evil as the heads of serpents, and the
retribution of their works like their venom.

works of this people are like those of the people of
Sedom, and their thoughts like those of the people of
Amorah: their evil works make them desolate, and become
bitter to them. For the poison of this people is like

repentance before Him; for He knoweth that in the

from their hands, and the faithful will have failed with
their good works and be scattered and forsaken.

mountain to which thou goest up, and be gathered to thy
people, even thou, as Aharon thy brother hath slept in

his people. Mosheh at once opened his mouth in prayer,
and said, Lord of all the world, I entreat that I may not
be as a man who had one only son, who being in
captivity, he went and redeemed him with great price;
he taught him wisdom and art, espoused him to a wife,
planted for him a royal bower, builded him a marriage
house, prepared for him the bed, invited his companions,
baked his bread, slew his victims, and mixed his wine;
yet, when the time came for his son to make glad with
his wife, and the guests were about to consecrate the
feast; then was that man required to go to the house of
judgment, before the king, and be punished with the
judgment of death; neither would they delay to execute
his sentence, that he might see the happiness of his son.
So have I laboured for this people; I have led them by
Thy Word out of Mizraim, I have taught them Thy
Law, and builded for them the tabernacle to Thy Name;
but now that the time hath come to pass the Jordan, I
am punished with death! Let it please Thee to
withhold from me this sentence until I have passed the
Jordan, to see the good of Israel before I die. The
Lord of the world answered him, and said:
