GE-23:1 And Sarah was an hundred and seven and twenty years old:

[these were]

the years of the life of Sarah.

GE-23:2 And Sarah died in Kirjatharba; the same [is] Hebron in

the land of

Canaan: and Abraham came to mourn for Sarah, and to weep for her.

GE-23:3 And Abraham stood up from before his dead, and spake

unto the sons of

Heth, saying,

GE-23:4 I [am] a stranger and a sojourner with you: give me a

possession of a

buryingplace with you, that I may bury my dead out of my sight.

GE-23:5 And the children of Heth answered Abraham, saying unto

him,

GE-23:6 Hear us, my lord: thou [art] a mighty prince among us:

in the choice

of our sepulchres bury thy dead; none of us shall withhold from

thee his

sepulchre, but that thou mayest bury thy dead.

GE-23:7 And Abraham stood up, and bowed himself to the people

of the land,

[even] to the children of Heth.

GE-23:8 And he communed with them, saying, If it be your mind

that I should

bury my dead out of my sight; hear me, and entreat for me to

Ephron the son of

Zohar,

GE-23:9 That he may give me the cave of Machpelah, which he

hath, which [is]

in the end of his field; for as much money as it is worth he

shall give it me

for a possession of a buryingplace amongst you.

GE-23:10 And Ephron dwelt among the children of Heth: and

Ephron the Hittite

answered Abraham in the audience of the children of Heth, [even]

of all that

went in at the gate of his city, saying,

GE-23:11 Nay, my lord, hear me: the field give I thee, and the

cave that [is]

therein, I give it thee; in the presence of the sons of my

people give I it

thee: bury thy dead.

GE-23:12 And Abraham bowed down himself before the people of

the land.

GE-23:13 And he spake unto Ephron in the audience of the people

of the land,

saying, But if thou [wilt give it], I pray thee, hear me: I will

give thee

money for the field; take [it] of me, and I will bury my dead

there.

GE-23:14 And Ephron answered Abraham, saying unto him,

GE-23:15 My lord, hearken unto me: the land [is worth] four

hundred shekels

of silver; what [is] that betwixt me and thee? bury therefore

thy dead.

GE-23:16 And Abraham hearkened unto Ephron; and Abraham weighed

to Ephron the

silver, which he had named in the audience of the sons of Heth,

four hundred

shekels of silver, current [money] with the merchant.

GE-23:17 And the field of Ephron, which [was] in Machpelah,

which [was]

before Mamre, the field, and the cave which [was] therein, and

all the trees

that [were] in the field, that [were] in all the borders round

about, were

made sure

GE-23:18 Unto Abraham for a possession in the presence of the

children of

Heth, before all that went in at the gate of his city.

GE-23:19 And after this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the

cave of the

field of Machpelah before Mamre: the same [is] Hebron in the

land of Canaan.

GE-23:20 And the field, and the cave that [is] therein, were

made sure unto

Abraham for a possession of a buryingplace by the sons of Heth.
