¹A Sárinho života bolo sto dvadsať sedem rokov. To sú roky života Sárinho.

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

²A Sára zomrela v Kirjat-arbe, to je Hebron, v Kananejskej zemi. A Abrahám prišiel, aby smútil za Sárou a aby ju oplakal.

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.

³Potom vstal Abrahám od svojho mŕtveho a hovoril synom Hetovým a vravel:

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

⁴Som tu u vás pohostín a cudzinec. Dajte mi u vás vlastníctva, čo mi bude na hrob, aby som pochoval svojho mŕtveho zpred svojej tvári.

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.

⁵A synovia Hetovi odpovedali Abrahámovi a riekli mu:

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

⁶Počuj nás, pane. Ty si knieža Božie medzi nami. Pochovaj svojho mŕtveho v niektorom z našich najlepších hrobov. Nikto z nás ti neodoprie svojho hrobu, aby si tam nepochoval svojho mŕtveho.

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.

⁷Vtedy vstal Abrahám a poklonil sa ľudu zeme, synom Hetovým.

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

⁸A hovoril s nimi a riekol: Ak myslíte, aby som pochoval svojho mŕtveho zpred svojej tvári, počujte ma a prihovorte sa za mňa u Efrona, syna Cochárovho.

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,

⁹aby mi dal jaskyňu Machpelu, ktorá patrí jemu a ktorá je na konci jeho poľa; nech mi ju dá za toľko striebra, koľko je hodna, aby mi bola vlastníctvom na pohrabište medzi vami.

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.

¹⁰A Efron sedel medzi synmi Hetovými. A tak povedal Hetej Efron Abrahámovi v prítomnosti synov Hetových, pred všetkými, ktorí vchádzali do brány jeho mesta, a riekol:

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,

¹¹Nie tak, môj pane, ale počuj ma; pole ti dávam, i jaskyňu, ktorá je na ňom, ti dávam, pred očami synov svojho ľudu ti ju dávam. Len pochovaj svojho mŕtveho.

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.

¹²Vtedy sa zase poklonil Abrahám pred ľudom zeme.

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

¹³A hovoril Efronovi pred ľudom zeme a riekol: Len keď ty tedy chceš; avšak nože ma počuj, prosím! Dám striebro za pole, vezmi odo mňa, a vtedy ta pochovám svojho mŕtveho.

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.

¹⁴A Efron odpovedal Abrahámovi a riekol mu:

¹⁴And Ephron answered Abraham, saying unto him,

¹⁵Môj pane, nože ma počuj; zem je za štyristo šeklov; ale čože je to medzi mnou a medzi tebou? Len pochovaj svojho mŕtveho.

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.

¹⁶A Abrahám poslúchol Efrona. A tak odvážil Abrahám Efronovi toľko šeklov striebra, koľko povedal, v prítomnosti synov Hetových: štyristo šeklov striebra, bežných medzi kupcami.

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.

¹⁷A tak prešlo pole Efronovo, ktoré je v Machpele, ktoré je naproti Mamremu, pole i jaskyňa, ktorá je na ňom, i všetky stromy, ktoré boly na poli, ktoré boly na celom jeho chotári na okolo,

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

¹⁸v majetok Abrahámovi pred očami synov Hetových so všetkými, ktorí vchádzajú do brány jeho mesta.

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

¹⁹A potom pochoval Abrahám Sáru, svoju ženu, do jaskyne poľa Machpela, naproti Mamremu, to je Hebron, v Kananejskej zemi.

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.

²⁰A tak stálo pole i jaskyňa, ktorá je na ňom, Abrahámovi za vlastníctvo na pohrabište od synov Hetových.

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.
