Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834]
The Lord was wroth with me for your sakes - Here, as in Deu 1:37; Deu 4:21; the sin of the people is stated to be the ground on which Moses' prayer is denied. In Deu 32:51; and in Num 27:14; the transgression of Moses and Aaron themselves is assigned as the cause of their punishment. The reason why one side of the transaction is put forward in this place, and the other elsewhere, is evident. Here Moses is addressing the people, and mentions the punishment of their leaders as a most impressive warning to them, whose principal fault it was. In Deut. 32 and Num. 27, God is addressing Moses, and visits on him, as is fitting, not the sin of the people hut his own.

Adam Clarke Commentary on the Whole Bible - Published 1810-1826
Let it suffice thee - רב לך rab lach, there is an abundance to thee - thou hast had honor enough already, and may well dispense with going over Jordan. He surely has no reason to complain who is taken from earthly felicity to heavenly glory. In this act God showed to Moses both his goodness and severity.
