1وكانت حياة سارة مئة وسبعا وعشرين سنة سني حياة سارة.
1Sarah lived one hundred twenty-seven years. This was the length of Sarah’s life.
2وماتت سارة في قرية اربع التي هي حبرون في ارض كنعان. فاتى ابراهيم ليندب سارة ويبكي عليها.
2Sarah died in Kiriath Arba (the same is Hebron), in the land of Canaan. Abraham came to mourn for Sarah, and to weep for her.
3وقام ابراهيم من امام ميته وكلم بني حثّ قائلا.
3Abraham rose up from before his dead, and spoke to the children of Heth, saying,
4انا غريب ونزيل عندكم. اعطوني ملك قبر معكم لادفن ميتي من امامي.
4“I am a stranger and a foreigner living with you. Give me a possession of a burying-place with you, that I may bury my dead out of my sight.”
5فاجاب بنو حثّ ابراهيم قائلين له.
5The children of Heth answered Abraham, saying to him,
6اسمعنا يا سيدي انت رئيس من الله بيننا. في افضل قبورنا ادفن ميتك. لا يمنع احد منا قبره عنك حتى لا تدفن ميتك.
6“Hear us, my lord. You are a prince of God among us. Bury your dead in the best of our tombs. None of us will withhold from you his tomb. Bury your dead.”
7فقام ابراهيم وسجد لشعب الارض لبني حثّ.
7Abraham rose up, and bowed himself to the people of the land, even to the children of Heth.
8وكلمهم قائلا ان كان في نفوسكم ان ادفن ميتي من امامي فاسمعوني والتمسوا لي من عفرون بن صوحر
8He talked with them, saying, “If it be your mind that I should bury my dead out of my sight, hear me, and entreat for me to Ephron the son of Zohar,
9ان يعطيني مغارة المكفيلة التي له التي في طرف حقله. بثمن كامل يعطيني اياها في وسطكم ملك قبر.
9that he may give me the cave of Machpelah, which he has, which is in the end of his field. For the full price let him give it to me among you for a possession of a burying-place.”
10وكان عفرون جالسا بين بني حثّ. فاجاب عفرون الحثّي ابراهيم في مسامع بني حثّ لدى جميع الداخلين باب مدينته قائلا.
10Now Ephron was sitting in the middle of the children of Heth. Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham in the hearing of the children of Heth, even of all who went in at the gate of his city, saying,
11لا يا سيدي اسمعني. الحقل وهبتك اياه. والمغارة التي فيه لك وهبتها. لدى عيون بني شعبي وهبتك اياها. ادفن ميتك.
11“No, my lord, hear me. I give you the field, and I give you the cave that is in it. In the presence of the children of my people I give it to you. Bury your dead.”
12فسجد ابراهيم امام شعب الارض.
12Abraham bowed himself down before the people of the land.
13وكلم عفرون في مسامع شعب الارض قائلا بل ان كنت انت اياه فليتك تسمعني. اعطيك ثمن الحقل. خذ مني فادفن ميتي هناك.
13He spoke to Ephron in the audience of the people of the land, saying, “But if you will, please hear me. I will give the price of the field. Take it from me, and I will bury my dead there.”
14فاجاب عفرون ابراهيم قائلا له.
14Ephron answered Abraham, saying to him,
15يا سيدي اسمعني. ارض باربع مئة شاقل فضة ما هي بيني وبينك. فادفن ميتك.
15“My lord, listen to me. What is a piece of land worth four hundred shekels of silver between me and you? Therefore bury your dead.”
16فسمع ابراهيم لعفرون ووزن ابراهيم لعفرون الفضة التي ذكرها في مسامع بني حثّ. اربع مئة شاقل فضة جائزة عند التجار
16Abraham listened to Ephron. Abraham weighed to Ephron the silver which he had named in the audience of the children of Heth, four hundred shekels of silver, according to the current merchants’ standard.
17فوجب حقل عفرون الذي في المكفيلة التي امام ممرا. الحقل والمغارة التي فيه وجميع الشجر الذي في الحقل الذي في جميع حدوده حواليه.
17So the field of Ephron, which was in Machpelah, which was before Mamre, the field, the cave which was in it, and all the trees that were in the field, that were in all of its borders, were deeded
18لابراهيم ملكا لدى عيون بني حثّ بين جميع الداخلين باب مدينته.
18to Abraham for a possession in the presence of the children of Heth, before all who went in at the gate of his city.
19وبعد ذلك دفن ابراهيم سارة امرأته في مغارة حقل المكفيلة امام ممرا التي هي حبرون في ارض كنعان.
19After this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field of Machpelah before Mamre (that is, Hebron), in the land of Canaan.
20فوجب الحقل والمغارة التي فيه لابراهيم ملك قبر من عند بني حثّ
20The field, and the cave that is in it, were deeded to Abraham for a possession of a burying place by the children of Heth.
