Genesis 23:10-18
10And EphronH6085 was dwellingH3427 among the sonsH1121 of HethH2845. And EphronH6085 the HittiteH2850 answered AbrahamH85, in the earsH241 of the sonsH1121 of HethH2845, [even] of all that wentH935 in at the gateH8179 of his cityH5892, sayingH559,
11No, my lordH113: hearH8085 me. The fieldH7704 giveH5414 I thee; and the caveH4631 that is in it, to thee I giveH5414 it; before the eyesH5869 of the sonsH1121 of my peopleH5971 giveH5414 I it thee: buryH6912 thy deadH4191.
12And AbrahamH85 bowedH7812 downH7812 before the peopleH5971 of the landH776;
13and he spokeH1696 to EphronH6085, in the earsH241 of the peopleH5971 of the landH776, sayingH559, But if onlyH389 thou wouldst listenH8085 to me, I giveH5414 the moneyH3701 for the fieldH7704: takeH3947 [it] of me, and I will buryH6912 my deadH4191 there.
14And EphronH6085 answered AbrahamH85, sayingH559 to him,
15My lordH113, hearken to me. A field of fourH702 hundredH3967 shekelsH8255 of silverH3701, what is that between me and thee? buryH6912 therefore thy deadH4191.
16And AbrahamH85 hearkened to EphronH6085; and AbrahamH85 weighedH8254 to EphronH6085 the moneyH3701 that he had named in the earsH241 of the sonsH1121 of HethH2845 — fourH702 hundredH3967 shekelsH8255 of silverH3701, current with the merchant.
17So the fieldH7704 of EphronH6085, which was at MachpelahH4375, which was before MamreH4471, the fieldH7704, and the caveH4631 that was in it, and all the treesH6086 that were in the fieldH7704, that were in all its bordersH1366 roundH5439 about,
18were assured to AbrahamH85 for a possession before the eyesH5869 of the sonsH1121 of HethH2845, before all who wentH935 in at the gateH8179 of his cityH5892.
