And SarahH8283 was an hundredH3967 and sevenH7651 and twentyH6242 yearsH8141 old:H2416 these were the yearsH8141 of the lifeH2416 of Sarah.H8283
2
And SarahH8283 diedH4191 in Kirjatharba;H7153 the sameH1931 is HebronH2275 in the landH776 of Canaan:H3667 and AbrahamH85 cameH935 to mournH5594 for Sarah,H8283 and to weepH1058 for her.
3
And AbrahamH85 stoodH6965 up from beforeH5921 H6440 his dead,H4191 and spokeH1696 to the sonsH1121 of Heth,H2845 saying,H559
4
I am a strangerH1616 and a sojournerH8453 with you: giveH5414 me a possessionH272 of a burial plotH6913 with you, that I may buryH6912 my deadH4191 out of my sight.H6440
5
And the childrenH1121 of HethH2845 answeredH6030 Abraham,H85 sayingH559 to him,
6
HearH8085 us, my lord:H113 you are a mightyH430 princeH5387 amongH8432 us: in the choiceH4005 of our sepulchersH6913 buryH6912 your dead;H4191 noneH376 H3808 of us shall withholdH3607 from you his sepulcher,H6913 but that you may buryH6912 your dead.H4191
7
And AbrahamH85 stoodH6965 up, and bowedH7812 himself to the peopleH5971 of the land,H776 even to the childrenH1121 of Heth.H2845
8
And he communedH1696 with them, saying,H559 If it be your mindH5315 that I should buryH6912 my deadH4191 out of my sight;H6440 hearH8085 me, and entreatH6293 for me to EphronH6085 the sonH1121 of Zohar,H6714
9
That he may giveH5414 me the caveH4631 of Machpelah,H4375 whichH834 he has, whichH834 is in the endH7097 of his field;H7704 for as much moneyH3701 as it is worthH4392 he shall giveH5414 it me for a possessionH272 of a burial plotH6913 amongH8432 you.
10
And EphronH6085 dwelledH3427 amongH8432 the childrenH1121 of Heth:H2845 and EphronH6085 the HittiteH2850 answeredH6030 AbrahamH85 in the audienceH241 of the childrenH1121 of Heth,H2845 even of allH3605 that wentH935 in at the gateH8179 of his city,H5892 saying,H559
11
No,H3808 my lord,H113 hearH8085 me: the fieldH7704 giveH5414 I you, and the caveH4631 that is therein, I giveH5414 it you; in the presenceH5869 of the sonsH1121 of my peopleH5971 giveH5414 I it you: buryH6912 your dead.H4191
12
And AbrahamH85 bowedH7812 downH7812 himself beforeH6440 the peopleH5971 of the land.H776
13
And he spokeH1696 to EphronH6085 in the audienceH241 of the peopleH5971 of the land,H776 saying,H559 But if you will giveH5414 it, I prayH3863 you, hearH8085 me: I will giveH5414 you moneyH3701 for the field;H7704 takeH3947 it of me, and I will buryH6912 my deadH4191 there.H8033
14
And EphronH6085 answeredH6030 Abraham,H85 sayingH559 to him,
15
My lord,H113 listenH8085 to me: the landH776 is worth fourH702 hundredH3967 shekelsH8255 of silver;H3701 whatH4100 is that betweenH996 me and you? buryH6912 therefore your dead.H4191
16
And AbrahamH85 listenedH8085 to Ephron;H6085 and AbrahamH85 weighedH8254 to EphronH6085 the silver,H3701 whichH834 he had namedH1696 in the audienceH241 of the sonsH1121 of Heth,H2845 fourH702 hundredH3967 shekelsH8255 of silver,H3701 currentH5674 money with the merchant.
17
And the fieldH7704 of Ephron H6085whichH834 was in Machpelah,H4375 whichH834 was beforeH6440 Mamre,H4471 the field,H7704 and the caveH4631 whichH834 was therein, and all the treesH6086 that were in the field,H7704 that were in all the bordersH1366 roundH5439 about, were made sureH6965
18
To AbrahamH85 for a possessionH4736 in the presenceH5869 of the childrenH1121 of Heth,H2845 before allH3605 that wentH935 in at the gateH8179 of his city.H5892
19
And afterH310 this,H3651 AbrahamH85 buriedH6912 SarahH8283 his wifeH802 in the caveH4631 of the fieldH7704 of MachpelahH4375 beforeH5921 H6440 Mamre:H4471 the sameH1931 is HebronH2275 in the landH776 of Canaan.H3667
20
And the field,H7704 and the caveH4631 that is therein, were made sureH6965 to AbrahamH85 for a possessionH272 of a burial plotH6913 by the sonsH1121 of Heth.H2845
