Text

1	Sarah lived 127 years; these were the years of the life of Sarah.
2	And Sarah died at Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron) in the land of Canaan, and Abraham went in to mourn for Sarah and to weep for her.
3	And Abraham rose up from before his dead and said to the Hittites,
4	“I am a sojourner and foreigner among you; give me property among you for a burying place, that I may bury my dead out of my sight.”
5	The Hittites answered Abraham,
6	“Hear us, my lord; you are a prince of God among us. Bury your dead in the choicest of our tombs. None of us will withhold from you his tomb to hinder you from burying your dead.”
7	Abraham rose and bowed to the Hittites, the people of the land.
8	And he said to them, “If you are willing that I should bury my dead out of my sight, hear me and entreat for me Ephron the son of Zohar,
9	that he may give me the cave of Machpelah, which he owns; it is at the end of his field. For the full price let him give it to me in your presence as property for a burying place.“
10	Now Ephron was sitting among the Hittites, and Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham in the hearing of the Hittites, of all who went in at the gate of his city,
11	“No, my lord, hear me: I give you the field, and I give you the cave that is in it. In the sight of the sons of my people I give it to you. Bury your dead.”
12	Then Abraham bowed down before the people of the land.
13	And he said to Ephron in the hearing of the people of the land, “But if you will, hear me: I give the price of the field. Accept it from me, that I may bury my dead there.”
14	Ephron answered Abraham,
15	“My lord, listen to me: a piece of land worth four hundred shekels of silver, what is that between you and me? Bury your dead.”
16	Abraham listened to Ephron, and Abraham weighed out for Ephron the silver that he had named in the hearing of the Hittites, four hundred shekels of silver, according to the weights current among the merchants.
17	So the field of Ephron in Machpelah, which was to the east of Mamre, the field with the cave that was in it and all the trees that were in the field, throughout its whole area, was made over
18	to Abraham as a possession in the presence of the Hittites, before all who went in at the gate of his city.
19	After this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field of Machpelah east of Mamre (that is, Hebron) in the land of Canaan.
20	The field and the cave that is in it were made over to Abraham as property for a burying place by the Hittites.

NIV

1	Sarah lived to be a hundred and twenty-seven years old.
2	She died at Kiriath Arba (that is, Hebron) in the land of Canaan, and Abraham went to mourn for Sarah and to weep over her.
3	Then Abraham rose from beside his dead wife and spoke to the Hittites. He said,
4	“I am an alien and a stranger among you. Sell me some property for a burial site here so I can bury my dead.”
5	The Hittites replied to Abraham,
6	“Sir, listen to us. You are a mighty prince among us. Bury your dead in the choicest of our tombs. None of us will refuse you his tomb for burying your dead.”
7	Then Abraham rose and bowed down before the people of the land, the Hittites.
8	He said to them, “If you are willing to let me bury my dead, then listen to me and intercede with Ephron son of Zohar on my behalf
9	so he will sell me the cave of Machpelah, which belongs to him and is at the end of his field. Ask him to sell it to me for the full price as a burial site among you.“
10	Ephron the Hittite was sitting among his people and he replied to Abraham in the hearing of all the Hittites who had come to the gate of his city.
11	“No, my lord,” he said. “Listen to me; I give you the field, and I give you the cave that is in it. I give it to you in the presence of my people. Bury your dead.”
12	Again Abraham bowed down before the people of the land
13	and he said to Ephron in their hearing, “Listen to me, if you will. I will pay the price of the field. Accept it from me so I can bury my dead there.”
14	Ephron answered Abraham,
15	“Listen to me, my lord; the land is worth four hundred shekels of silver, but what is that between me and you? Bury your dead.”
16	Abraham agreed to Ephron's terms and weighed out for him the price he had named in the hearing of the Hittites: four hundred shekels of silver, according to the weight current among the merchants.
17	So Ephron's field in Machpelah near Mamre-both the field and the cave in it, and all the trees within the borders of the field-was deeded
18	to Abraham as his property in the presence of all the Hittites who had come to the gate of the city.
19	Afterward Abraham buried his wife Sarah in the cave in the field of Machpelah near Mamre (which is at Hebron) in the land of Canaan.
20	So the field and the cave in it were deeded to Abraham by the Hittites as a burial site.

NLT

1	When Sarah was 127 years old,
2	she died at Kiriath-arba (now called Hebron) in the land of Canaan. There Abraham mourned and wept for her.
3	Then, leaving her body, he said to the Hittite elders,
4	“Here I am, a stranger and a foreigner among you. Please sell me a piece of land so I can give my wife a proper burial.”
5	The Hittites replied to Abraham,
6	“Listen, my lord, you are an honored prince among us. Choose the finest of our tombs and bury her there. No one here will refuse to help you in this way.”
7	Then Abraham bowed low before the Hittites and said,
8	“Since you are willing to help me in this way, be so kind as to ask Ephron son of Zohar
9	to let me buy his cave at Machpelah, down at the end of his field. I will pay the full price in the presence of witnesses, so I will have a permanent burial place for my family.“
10	Ephron was sitting there among the others, and he answered Abraham as the others listened, speaking publicly before all the Hittite elders of the town.
11	“No, my lord,” he said to Abraham, “please listen to me. I will give you the field and the cave. Here in the presence of my people, I give it to you. Go and bury your dead.”
12	Abraham again bowed low before the citizens of the land,
13	and he replied to Ephron as everyone listened. “No, listen to me. I will buy it from you. Let me pay the full price for the field so I can bury my dead there.”
14	Ephron answered Abraham,
15	“My lord, please listen to me. The land is worth 400 pieces of silver, but what is that between friends? Go ahead and bury your dead.”
16	So Abraham agreed to Ephron's price and paid the amount he had suggested– 400 pieces of silver, weighed according to the market standard. The Hittite elders witnessed the transaction.
17	So Abraham bought the plot of land belonging to Ephron at Machpelah, near Mamre. This included the field itself, the cave that was in it, and all the surrounding trees.
18	It was transferred to Abraham as his permanent possession in the presence of the Hittite elders at the city gate.
19	Then Abraham buried his wife, Sarah, there in Canaan, in the cave of Machpelah, near Mamre (also called Hebron).
20	So the field and the cave were transferred from the Hittites to Abraham for use as a permanent burial place.

KJV

1	And Sarah was an hundred and seven and twenty years old: these were the years of the life of Sarah.
2	And Sarah died in Kirjatharba; the same is Hebron in the land of Canaan: and Abraham came to mourn for Sarah, and to weep for her.
3	And Abraham stood up from before his dead, and spake unto the sons of Heth, saying,
4	I am a stranger and a sojourner with you: give me a possession of a buryingplace with you, that I may bury my dead out of my sight.
5	And the children of Heth answered Abraham, saying unto him,
6	Hear us, my lord: thou art a mighty prince among us: in the choice of our sepulchres bury thy dead; none of us shall withhold from thee his sepulchre, but that thou mayest bury thy dead.
7	And Abraham stood up, and bowed himself to the people of the land, even to the children of Heth.
8	And he communed with them, saying, If it be your mind that I should bury my dead out of my sight; hear me, and intreat for me to Ephron the son of Zohar,
9	That he may give me the cave of Machpelah, which he hath, which is in the end of his field; for as much money as it is worth he shall give it me for a possession of a buryingplace amongst you.
10	And Ephron dwelt among the children of Heth: and Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham in the audience of the children of Heth, even of all that went in at the gate of his city, saying,
11	Nay, my lord, hear me: the field give I thee, and the cave that is therein, I give it thee; in the presence of the sons of my people give I it thee: bury thy dead.
12	And Abraham bowed down himself before the people of the land.
13	And he spake unto Ephron in the audience of the people of the land, saying, But if thou wilt give it, I pray thee, hear me: I will give thee money for the field; take it of me, and I will bury my dead there.
14	And Ephron answered Abraham, saying unto him,
15	My lord, hearken unto me: the land is worth four hundred shekels of silver; what is that betwixt me and thee? bury therefore thy dead.
16	And Abraham hearkened unto Ephron; and Abraham weighed to Ephron the silver, which he had named in the audience of the sons of Heth, four hundred shekels of silver, current money with the merchant.
17	And the field of Ephron, which was in Machpelah, which was before Mamre, the field, and the cave which was therein, and all the trees that were in the field, that were in all the borders round about, were made sure
18	Unto Abraham for a possession in the presence of the children of Heth, before all that went in at the gate of his city.
19	And after this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field of Machpelah before Mamre: the same is Hebron in the land of Canaan.
20	And the field, and the cave that is therein, were made sure unto Abraham for a possession of a buryingplace by the sons of Heth.
