Context of Deuteronomy 32:50
48On the same day, the Lord said to Moses, 49‘Go up into the hill country of Abarim in Moab's land. Climb Mount Nebo where you can see Jericho city on the other side of the river. Look at the land of Canaan. I am giving this land to the Israelites as their new home. You will die on Mount Nebo, as your brother Aaron died on Mount Hor. 51Both of you refused to obey me at the waters of Meribah Kadesh, in the Zin desert. You did not show the Israelites that you respected me as God. 52So you will not go into the land that I am giving to the Israelites. You will only see it from far away.’
