亚伯拉罕买地埋葬撒拉

23 撒拉享寿一百二十七岁,这是撒拉一生的岁数。 撒拉死在迦南地的基列.亚巴,就是希伯仑;亚伯拉罕进去为撒拉哀恸哭号。 亚伯拉罕从死者面前起来,对赫人说: “我是在你们中间寄居的外族人,求你们在你们中间给我一块坟地作产业,使我可以埋葬我死了的人,使她不露在我面前。” 赫人回答亚伯拉罕,说: “我主请听,你在我们中间是一位尊贵的王子,你可以在我们最好的坟地里埋葬你死了的人,我们必没有人阻止你在他的坟地埋葬你死了的人。” 于是,亚伯拉罕起来,向当地的赫人下拜, 对他们说:“你们若有意使我埋葬我死了的人,使她不露在我的眼前,就请听我的话,为我请求琐辖的儿子以弗仑, 叫他把他所拥有的,田头上那麦比拉洞卖给我。他可以按着十足的价银卖给我,使我在你们中间有产业作坟地。” 10 那时,以弗仑正坐在赫人中间。于是,赫人以弗仑就回答亚伯拉罕,所有来到城门口的赫人都听见他说: 11 “我主,不要这样,请听我说,这块田我送给你,连其中的洞我也送给你。我在我的族人眼前送给你,让你可以埋葬你死了的人。” 12 亚伯拉罕就在当地的人面前下拜, 13 然后在当地的人面前对以弗仑说:“请听我说,如果你愿意,我必定把地的价银给你,请你收下吧,让我可以在那里埋葬我死了的人。” 14 以弗仑回答亚伯拉罕,对他说: 15 “我主,请听我说,一块值四百块(四千五百克)银子的田地,在你我之间,算得甚么呢?你埋葬你死了的人吧。” 16 亚伯拉罕同意以弗仑说的价银,就照着他在赫人面前所说的,拿商人通用的银子,称了四百块(四千五百克)银子给以弗仑。

17 于是,以弗仑在麦比拉,在幔利前面的那块地,包括那块田和其中的洞,田中和四周所有的树木, 18 都在赫人眼前,就是在所有来到城门口的赫人眼前,归给亚伯拉罕作产业。 19 这事以后,亚伯拉罕把自己的妻子撒拉埋在迦南地,幔利前面麦比拉田间的洞里。幔利就是希伯仑。 20 这样,那块田和田中的洞,就从赫人归给了亚伯拉罕为产业作坟地。

亚伯拉罕买地葬撒拉

23 撒拉享年一百二十七岁, 在迦南境内的基列·亚巴,即希伯仑去世。亚伯拉罕在那里痛哭,哀悼她。 他从妻子尸体旁边站起来对赫人说: “我是寄居在你们这里的异乡人,请你们给我一块地,我好埋葬我的亡妻。” 赫人回答说: “我主,请听我们说,你在我们中间是一位尊贵的王子,你可以选我们这里最好的坟地,没有人会反对你使用他的坟地埋葬你的妻子。” 亚伯拉罕就向他们下拜,说: “如果你们真的准我安葬妻子,就请你们代我求琐辖的儿子以弗仑, 请他当着你们的面,把他田地尽头的麦比拉洞按实价卖给我作坟地。”

10 当时以弗仑正坐在赫人当中,于是他在城门口赫人聚集的地方当众答复亚伯拉罕说: 11 “不可!我主,请听我说,我当着族人的面,把那块地和山洞送给你,你只管去安葬你的妻子!” 12 亚伯拉罕向当地的人下拜, 13 当众对以弗仑说:“你若愿意,请听我说,我要把地钱给你,请你收下,好让我安葬我的妻子。” 14 以弗仑回答说: 15 “我主,请听我说,四公斤半银子的地对你我来说算什么呢?去安葬你的妻子吧!” 16 于是,亚伯拉罕就照以弗仑当众提出的价钱,按通用的重量单位秤了四公斤半银子给他。

17 这样,以弗仑在麦比拉、靠近幔利的那块地和山洞及地界内所有的树木, 18 都归了亚伯拉罕。这是在城门口的赫人面前买下的。

19 之后,亚伯拉罕把妻子撒拉安葬在迦南的幔利附近、麦比拉田间的洞里。幔利就是希伯仑。 20 这块赫人的地和其中的山洞从此成了亚伯拉罕家的坟地。

23 And Sarah was an hundred and seven and twenty years old: these were the years of the life of Sarah.

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.

And Abraham stood up from before his dead, and spake unto the sons of Heth, saying,

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.

And the children of Heth answered Abraham, saying unto him,

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.

And Abraham stood up, and bowed himself to the people of the land, even to the children of Heth.

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,

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.
