10. Now Ephron was present there among the sons of Heth; so, in the hearing of all who went in at the gate of his city, Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham, saying,
11. No, my lord, hear me; I give you the field, and the cave that is in it I give you. In the presence of the sons of my people I give it to you. Bury your dead.
12. Then Abraham bowed himself down before the people of the land.
13. And he said to Ephron in the presence of the people of the land, But if you will give it, I beg of you, hear me. I will give you the price of the field; accept it from me, and I will bury my dead there.
14. Ephron replied to Abraham, saying,
15. My lord, listen to me. The land is worth 400 shekels of silver; what is that between you and me? So bury your dead.
