Genesis 23:7-12

7So Abraham stood up and bowed to the people of the land, the sons of Heth.

8And he spoke with them, saying, “If 1you are willing to let me bury my dead out of my sight, listen to me, and plead with 2Ephron the son of Zohar for me,

9that he may give me the cave of Machpelah which he owns, which is at the end of his field; for the full price let him give it to me in 3your presence for 4a burial site.”

10Now Ephron was sitting among the sons of Heth; and Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham 5so that the sons of Heth heard, 6that is, all who entered the gate of his city, saying,

11“No, my lord, listen to me; 7I give you the field, and I give you the cave that is in it. In the presence of the sons of my people I give it to you; bury your dead.”

12And Abraham bowed before the people of the land.
