² Sarah died in ^(A)Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron) in the land of Canaan; and Abraham ^[a]came to mourn for Sarah and to weep for her.

¹⁹ After this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field at Machpelah facing Mamre (that is, Hebron) in the land of Canaan.

²⁷ And Jacob came to his father Isaac at ^(A)Mamre of ^(B)Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had sojourned.
