Moartea şi îngroparea Sarei
23 Sara a trăit o sută douăzeci şi şapte de ani; aceasta a fost durata vieţii ei. 2 Ea a murit la Chiriat-Arba, adică Hebron, în Canaan, iar Avraam s-a dus s-o jelească şi să plângă după ea. 3 Apoi Avraam s-a ridicat de lângă moarta sa şi le-a spus hitiţilor:
4 – Eu sunt doar un străin şi un peregrin printre voi: vindeţi-mi în mijlocul vostru un teren pentru înmormântare, pentru ca să-mi îngrop moarta dinaintea mea.
5 Hitiţii i-au răspuns lui Avraam:
6 – Ascultă-ne, domnul nostru! Tu eşti un prinţ puternic printre noi. Îngroapă-ţi moarta în cel mai bun dintre mormintele noastre; nici unul dintre noi nu te va opri să-ţi îngropi moarta în mormântul lui.
7 Avraam s-a ridicat şi s-a prosternat înaintea hitiţilor, poporul ţării. 8 El le-a zis:
– Dacă vreţi să-mi îngrop moarta dinaintea mea, atunci ascultaţi-mă şi rugaţi-l pentru mine pe Efron, fiul lui Ţohar, 9 să-mi vândă peştera Mahpela, care este a lui şi care se află la marginea ogorului său. Să mi-o vândă la un preţ întreg, ca teren pentru înmormântare printre voi.
10 Fiind printre ceilalţi hitiţi, Efron i-a răspuns lui Avraam în auzul tuturor hitiţilor care veniseră la poarta cetăţii sale:
11 – Nu, domnul meu, ascultă-mă! Îţi dau ogorul şi-ţi dau şi peştera care este în el; ţi-o dau în prezenţa oamenilor din poporul meu. Îngroapă-ţi moarta.
12 Atunci Avraam s-a prosternat înaintea poporului ţării 13 şi i-a zis lui Efron în auzul poporului:
– Ascultă-mă, te rog! Îţi voi plăti preţul pentru ogor; primeşte-l de la mine, pentru ca să-mi îngrop moarta acolo.
14 Efron i-a răspuns lui Avraam:
15 – Domnul meu, ascultă-mă: o bucată de pământ de patru sute de şecheli de argint[a], ce este aceasta între mine şi tine? Îngroapă-ţi moarta.
16 Avraam a fost de acord cu Efron şi i-a cântărit preţul pe care acesta l-a menţionat în auzul hitiţilor: patru sute de şecheli de argint, potrivit tarifelor comercianţilor.
17 Astfel, ogorul lui Efron din Mahpela, care se afla la răsărit de Mamre (adică ogorul, peştera care se afla în el, precum şi toţi copacii care erau pe acel teren) a trecut 18 în proprietatea lui Avraam prin cumpărare în prezenţa tuturor hitiţilor care veniseră la poarta cetăţii sale. 19 După aceea, Avraam a îngropat-o pe Sara, soţia sa, în peştera de pe ogorul din Mahpela, care se afla la răsărit de Mamre, adică Hebron, în ţara Canaan. 20 Astfel, ogorul şi peştera care se afla în el au trecut de la hitiţi în proprietatea lui Avraam, ca teren pentru înmormântare.

King James Version
23 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.

The Death of Sarah
23 Sarah lived to be a hundred and twenty-seven years old. 2 She died at Kiriath Arba(A) (that is, Hebron)(B) in the land of Canaan, and Abraham went to mourn for Sarah and to weep over her.(C)
3 Then Abraham rose from beside his dead wife and spoke to the Hittites.[a](D) He said, 4 “I am a foreigner and stranger(E) among you. Sell me some property for a burial site here so I can bury my dead.(F)”
5 The Hittites replied to Abraham, 6 “Sir, listen to us. You are a mighty prince(G) 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(H) on my behalf 9 so he will sell me the cave of Machpelah,(I) 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(J) who had come to the gate(K) of his city. 11 “No, my lord,” he said. “Listen to me; I give[b](L) you the field, and I give[c] you the cave that is in it. I give[d] 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[e] of silver,(M) but what is that between you and me? 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,(N) according to the weight current among the merchants.(O)
17 So Ephron’s field in Machpelah(P) near Mamre(Q)—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(R) in the presence of all the Hittites(S) who had come to the gate(T) of the city. 19 Afterward Abraham buried his wife Sarah in the cave in the field of Machpelah(U) near Mamre (which is at Hebron(V)) in the land of Canaan.(W) 20 So the field and the cave in it were deeded(X) to Abraham by the Hittites as a burial site.(Y)
