    3 Then Abraham rose from beside his dead wife and spoke to the Hittites, saying,

    4 “I am a foreigner and a sojourner among you. Give me a burial site among you so I can bury my dead out of my sight.”

    5 The Hittites replied to Abraham,

    6 “Listen to us, my lord. You are a prince of God among us. Bury your dead in the best of our burial sites. None of us will withhold his burial site from you to bury your dead.”

    7 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 out of my sight, listen to me and plead with Ephron son of Zohar on my behalf.

    9 Ask him to give me the cave of Machpelah, which belongs to him and is at the edge of his field. Let him sell it to me for its full price as a burial site among you.”

    10 Now Ephron was sitting among the Hittites, and in the hearing of all who came to the gate of his city, Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham, saying,

    11 “No, my lord! Listen to me: I give you the field, and I give you the cave that is in it. In the presence of my people, I give it to you. Go ahead and bury your dead.”

    12 Then Abraham bowed down before the people of the land.

    13 And he said to Ephron in their hearing, “Please listen to me. I am giving you the price of the field. Accept it from me so that I may bury my dead there.”
