11“NoH3808, my lordH113, listenH8085 to me; 1I giveH5414 you the fieldH7704, and I giveH5414 you the caveH4631 that is in it. In the presenceH5869 of the sonsH1121 of my peopleH5971 I giveH5414 it to you; buryH6912 your deadH4191.”
12And AbrahamH85 bowedH2331 beforeH6440 the peopleH5971 of the landH776.
13But he spokeH1696 to EphronH6085 2so that the peopleH5971 of the landH776 heardH241, sayingH559, “IfH518 you will onlyH389 pleaseH3863 listenH8085 to me; I will giveH5414 the priceH3701 of the fieldH7704, acceptH3947 it from me so that I may buryH6912 my deadH4191 thereH8033.”
14Then EphronH6085 answeredH6030 AbrahamH85, sayingH559 to him,
15“My lordH113, listenH8085 to me: a plot of landH776 worth 3fourH702 hundredH3967 4shekelsH8255 of silverH3701--whatH4100 is that betweenH996 me and you? So buryH6912 your deadH4191.”
