Bible stories for children » A fit of anger that cost a good man his life
Then Moses and Aaron gathered the community together in front of the rock, and he said to them, "Listen, you rebels, must we bring water out of this rock for you?" Then Moses raised his hand, and struck the rock twice with his staff. And water came out abundantly. So the community drank, and their beasts drank too. Then the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, "Because you did not trust me enough to show me as holy before the Israelites, therefore you will not bring this community into the land I have given them."

Let me please cross over to see the good land on the other side of the Jordan River -- this good hill country and the Lebanon!" read more.

Then the Lord said to him, "This is the land I promised to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob when I said, 'I will give it to your descendants.' I have let you see it, but you will not cross over there."

The Israelites mourned for Moses in the deserts of Moab for thirty days; then the days of mourning for Moses ended.
