¹And the life of Sarah was a hundred and seven and twenty years. These were the years of the life of Sarah.

¹Ja Saara elas sada kakskümmend seitse aastat; nii palju oli Saaral eluaastaid.

²And Sarah died in Kiriath-arba (the same is Hebron), in the land of Canaan. And Abraham came to mourn for Sarah, and to weep for her.

²Saara suri Kirjat-Arbas, see on Hebronis, Kaananimaal; ja Aabraham tuli Saarat leinama ja taga nutma.

³And Abraham rose up from before his dead, and spake unto the children of Heth, saying,

³Siis Aabraham tõusis üles oma surnu juurest ja rääkis hettidega, öeldes:

⁴I am a stranger and a sojourner with you. Give me a possession of a burying-place with you, that I may bury my dead out of my sight.

⁴'Mina olen teie juures võõras ja majaline. Andke mulle eneste juurde pärandhaud, et saaksin matta surnu oma silma eest.'

⁵And the children of Heth answered Abraham, saying unto him,

⁵Ja hetid vastasid Aabrahamile, öeldes temale:

⁶Hear us, my lord. Thou art a prince of God among us. In the choice of our sepulchres bury thy dead. None of us shall withhold from thee his sepulchre, but that thou mayest bury thy dead.

⁶'Kuule meid, isand! Sina oled Jumala vürst meie keskel. Mata oma surnu meie kõige paremasse hauda! Ükski meist ei keela sulle oma hauda su surnu matmiseks.'

⁷And Abraham rose up, and bowed himself to the people of the land, even to the children of Heth.

⁷Aga Aabraham tõusis ning kummardas maa rahva, hettide ees

⁸And he communed 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,

⁸ja rääkis nendega, öeldes: 'Kui see on teile meeltmööda, et ma oma surnu oma silma eest ära matan, siis kuulge mind ja mõjustage minu kasuks Efronit, Sohari poega,

⁹that he may give me the cave of Machpelah, which he hath, which is in the end of his field. For the full price let him give it to me in the midst of you for a possession of a burying-place.

⁹et ta mulle annaks temale kuuluva Makpela koopa, mis on ta välja servas. Ta andku see mulle täie hinna eest pärushauaks teie keskel!'

¹⁰Now Ephron was sitting in the midst of the children of Heth. And Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham in the audience of the children of Heth, even of all that went in at the gate of his city, saying,

¹⁰Aga Efron istus hettide hulgas; ja hett Efron vastas Aabrahamile hettide kuuldes, kõigi juuresolekul, kes ta linna väravast läbi käisid, ja ütles:

¹¹Nay, my lord, hear me. The field give I thee, and the cave that is therein, I give it thee. In the presence of the children of my people give I it thee. Bury thy dead.

¹¹'Ei, mu isand! Kuule mind! Ma annan sulle välja, samuti ma annan sulle koopa, mis sellel asub; ma annan selle sulle oma rahvuskaaslaste silma all. Mata oma surnu!'

¹²And Abraham bowed himself down before the people of the land.

¹²Kuid Aabraham kummardas maa rahva ees,

¹³And he spake unto Ephron in the audience of the people of the land, saying, But if thou wilt, I pray thee, hear me. I will give the price of the field. Take it of me, and I will bury my dead there.

¹³rääkis Efroniga maa rahva kuuldes ja ütles: 'Kui sa ometi ise mind kuulda võtaksid! Mina maksan välja eest raha, võta see minult, et saaksin oma surnu sinna matta!'

¹⁴And Ephron answered Abraham, saying unto him,

¹⁴Siis Efron vastas Aabrahamile, öeldes temale:

¹⁵My lord, hearken unto me. A piece of land worth four hundred shekels of silver, what is that betwixt me and thee? Bury therefore thy dead.

¹⁵'Mu isand, kuule mind! Maa väärtus on nelisada hõbeseeklit - mis tähtsus sellel ongi minu ja sinu vahekorra juures. Mata aga oma surnu!'

¹⁶And Abraham hearkened unto Ephron. And Abraham weighed to Ephron the silver which he had named in the audience of the children of Heth, four hundred shekels of silver, current [money] with the merchant.

¹⁶Ja Aabraham kuulas Efronit; Aabraham vaagis Efronile raha, mida see hettide kuuldes oli nimetanud, nelisada hõbeseeklit, kaubanduses käibel olevaid.

¹⁷So the field of Ephron, which was in Machpelah, which was before Mamre, the field, and the cave which was therein, and all the trees that were in the field, that were in all the border thereof round about, were made sure

¹⁷Nõnda said Efroni väli Makpelas Mamre kohal, väli ja selles olev koobas ja kõik väljal olevad puud, mis olid ümber kogu selle maa-ala,

¹⁸unto Abraham for a possession in the presence of the children of Heth, before all that went in at the gate of his city.

¹⁸Aabrahami omandiks hettide nähes, kõigi juuresolekul, kes linna väravast läbi käisid.

¹⁹And after this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field of Machpelah before Mamre (the same is Hebron), in the land of Canaan.

¹⁹Ja seejärel Aabraham mattis oma naise Saara Makpela välja koopasse Mamre kohal, see on Hebronis Kaananimaal.

²⁰And the field, and the cave that is therein, were made sure unto Abraham for a possession of a burying-place by the children of Heth.

²⁰Nõnda said väli ja selles olev koobas hettidelt Aabrahamile pärushauaks.
