Genesis 23:7-12
7And AbrahamH85 roseH6965 up, and bowedH7812 himself to the peopleH5971 of the landH776, even to the children of HethH2845.
8And he communed with them, sayingH559, If it be your mind that I should buryH6912 my deadH4191 out of my sight, hearH8085 me, and entreatH6293 for me to EphronH6085 the sonH1121 of ZoharH6714,
9that he may giveH5414 me the caveH4631 of MachpelahH4375, which he hath, which is in the endH7097 of his fieldH7704; for the fullH4392 price let him giveH5414 it to me in the midstH8432 of you for a possessionH272 of a burying-place.
10Now EphronH6085 was sittingH3427 in the midstH8432 of the children of HethH2845: and EphronH6085 the HittiteH2850 answered AbrahamH85 in the audience of the children of HethH2845, even of all that wentH935 in at the gateH8179 of his cityH5892, sayingH559,
11Nay, my lordH113, hearH8085 me: the fieldH7704 giveH5414 I thee, and the caveH4631 that is therein, I giveH5414 it thee; in the presence of the children of my peopleH5971 giveH5414 I it thee: buryH6912 thy deadH4191.
12And AbrahamH85 bowedH7812 himself downH7812 before the peopleH5971 of the landH776.
