Genesis 23
The Burial of Sarah
1When Sarah was 127 years old,
3Then, leaving her body, he said to the Hittite elders,
5The Hittites replied to Abraham,
7Then Abraham bowed low before the Hittites
10Ephron was sitting there among the others, and he answered Abraham as the others listened, speaking publicly before all the Hittite elders of the town.
12Abraham again bowed low before the citizens of the land,
14Ephron answered Abraham,
16So Abraham agreed to Ephron’s price and paid the amount he had suggested—400 pieces of silver, weighed according to the market standard. The Hittite elders witnessed the transaction.
17So Abraham bought the plot of land belonging to Ephron at Machpelah, near Mamre. This included the field itself, the cave that was in it, and all the surrounding trees.
