Deuteronomy 34:9-12

Moses Sees the Land, Dies as the LORD's Servant, and Joshua Succeeds Him

Deuteronomy 34 moves from Moses viewing the sworn land, to his death and hidden burial, to Israel's mourning, Joshua's Spirit-enabled succession, and a final testimony that no prophet like Moses had yet arisen in Israel.

Berean Standard Bible, Public Domain - Translation notes - Reference sources

9 Now Joshua son of Nun was filled with the spirit of wisdom because Moses had laid his hands on him. So the Israelites obeyed him and did as the LORD had commanded Moses.

10 Since that time, no prophet has risen in Israel like Moses, whom the LORD knew face to face—

11 no prophet who did all the signs and wonders that the LORD sent Moses to do in the land of Egypt to Pharaoh and to all his officials and all his land,

12 and no prophet who performed all the mighty acts of power and awesome deeds that Moses did in the sight of all Israel.
