And Abraham bowed down himself before the people of the land.
13
And he spoke unto Ephron in the audience of the people of the land, saying, But if thou
wilt give it, I pray thee, hear me; I will give thee money for the field; take
it of me, and I will bury my dead there.
14
And Ephron answered Abraham, saying unto him,
15
My lord, hearken unto me: the land
is worth four hundred shekels of silver; what
is that between me and thee? bury therefore thy dead.
16
Then Abraham hearkened unto Ephron, and Abraham weighed to Ephron the silver, which he had named in the audience of the sons of Heth, four hundred shekels of silver, current
money with the merchant.
