7And AbrahamH85 stood upH6965, and bowedH7812 himself to the peopleH5971 of the landH776, even to the childrenH1121 of HethH2845.
8And he communedH1696 with them, sayingH559, If it beH3426 your mindH5315 that I should buryH6912 my deadH4191 out of my sightH6440; hearH8085 me, and intreatH6293 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 as muchH4392 moneyH3701 as it is worthH4392 he shall give itH5414 me for a possessionH272 of a buryingplaceH6913 amongst youH8432.1
