Genesis 23:7-9

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

⁷ Abraham rose and bowed to the Hittites, the people of the land. ⁸ 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 son of Zohar, ⁹ so 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 a possession for a burying-place.’
