I find true sollace in Duteronomy and for all other good westoners out
there; I give you this blessing;

''And Jehovah spake unto Moses that selfsame day, saying, Get thee up
into this mountain of Abarim, unto mount Nebo, which is in the land of
Moab, that is

over against Jericho; and behold the land of Canaan, which I give unto
the children of Israel for a possession; and die in the mount whither
thou goest up,

and be gathered unto thy people, as Aaron thy brother died in mount
Hor, and was gathered unto his people: because ye trespassed against
me in the midst of

the children of Israel at the waters of Meribah of Kadesh, in the
wilderness of Zin; because ye sanctified me not in the midst of the
children of Israel.

For thou shalt see the land before thee; but thou shalt not go thither
into the land which I give the children of Israyl.''
