The Parasha is Haazinu, Deuteronomy 32: 1 - 52. Chapter 32 basically consists mostly of a long poem rendered by Moses for the ears of the Jews, Psalm-like in scope and style with praise to G-d, history and foretelling of what is to come. In the last verses, G-d instructs Moses where to go for his final trip…
“Ascend these heights of Abarim to Mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab facing Jericho, and view the land of Canaan, which I am giving the Israelites as their holding. 50 You shall die on the mountain that you are about to ascend, and shall be gathered to your kin, as your brother Aaron died on Mount Hor and was gathered to his kin; 51 for you both broke faith with Me among the Israelite people, at the waters of Meribath-kadesh in the wilderness of Zin, by failing to uphold My sanctity among the Israelite people. 52 You may view the land from a distance, but you shall not enter it — the land that I am giving to the Israelite people.”
