And Ephron answered Abraham, saying to him
15
"My lord, listen to me; the land is worth four hundred shekels of silver. What is that between you and me? So bury your dead."
16
And Abraham listened to Ephron; and Abraham weighed out the silver for Ephron which he had named in the hearing of the sons of Heth, four hundred shekels of silver, currency of the merchants.
17
So the field of Ephron which was in Machpelah, which was before Mamre, the field and the cave which was in it, and all the trees that were in the field, which were within all the surrounding borders, were deeded
18
to Abraham as a possession in the presence of the sons of Heth, before all who 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 (that is, Hebron) in the land of Canaan
20
So the field and the cave that is in it were deeded to Abraham by the sons of Heth as property for a burial place.
