1And Sara lived a hundred and twenty-seven years.
1撒拉 享寿一百二十七岁，这是 撒拉 一生的岁数。
2And she died in the city of Arbee which is Hebron, in the land of Chanaan: and Abraham came to mourn and weep for her.
2撒拉 死在 迦南 地的 基列·亚巴 ，就是 希伯 。 亚伯拉罕 为她哀恸哭号。
3And after he rose up from the funeral obsequies, he spoke to the children of Heth, saying:
3后来 亚伯拉罕 从死人面前起来，对 赫 人说：
4I am a stranger and sojourner among you: give me the right of a burying place with you, that I may bury my dead.
4「我在你们中间是外人，是寄居的。求你们在这里给我一块地，我好埋葬我的死人，使她不在我眼前。」
5The children of Heth answered, saying:
5赫 人回答 亚伯拉罕 说：
6My Lord, hear us, thou art a prince of God among us: bury thy dead in our principal sepulchres: and no man shall have power to hinder thee from burying thy dead in his sepulchre.
6「我主请听。你在我们中间是一位尊大的王子，只管在我们最好的坟地里埋葬你的死人；我们没有一人不容你在他的坟地里埋葬你的死人。」
7Abraham rose up, and bowed down to the people of the land, to wit the children of Heth:
7亚伯拉罕 就起来，向那地的 赫 人下拜，
8And said to them: If it please your soul that I should bury my dead, hear me, and intercede for me to Ephron the son of Seor.
8对他们说：「你们若有意叫我埋葬我的死人，使她不在我眼前，就请听我的话，为我求 琐辖 的儿子 以弗 ；
9That he may give me the double cave, which he hath in the end of his field: for as much money as it is worth he shall give it me before you, for a possession of a burying place.
9把田头上那 麦比拉洞 给我；他可以按着足价卖给我，作我在你们中间的坟地。」
10Now Ephron dwelt in the midst of the children of Heth. And Ephron made answer to Abraham in the hearing of all that went in at the gate of the city, saying:
10当时 以弗 正坐在 赫 人中间。于是， 赫 人 以弗 在城门出入的 赫 人面前对 亚伯拉罕 说：
11Let it not be so, my lord, but do thou rather hearken to what I say: The field I deliver to thee, and the cave that is therein, in the presence of the children of my people, bury thy dead.
11「不然，我主请听。我送给你这块田，连田间的洞也送给你，在我同族的人面前都给你，可以埋葬你的死人。」
12Abraham bowed down before the people of the land,
12亚伯拉罕 就在那地的人民面前下拜，
13And he spoke to Ephron, in the presence of the people: I beseech thee to hear me: I will give money for the field: take it, and so I will bury my dead in it.
13在他们面前对 以弗 说：「你若应允，请听我的话。我要把田价给你，求你收下，我就在那里埋葬我的死人。」
14And Ephron answered:
14以弗 回答 亚伯拉罕 说：
15My lord, hear me. The ground which thou desirest, is worth four hundred sicles of silver: this is the price between me and thee: but what is this? bury thy dead.
15「我主请听。值四百舍客勒银子的一块田，在你我中间还算什么呢？只管埋葬你的死人吧！」
16And when Abraham had heard this, he weighed out the money that Ephron had asked, in the hearing of the children of Heth, four hundred sicles of silver of common current money.
16亚伯拉罕 听从了 以弗 ，照着他在 赫 人面前所说的话，把买卖通用的银子平了四百舍客勒给 以弗 。
17And the field that before was Ephron’s, wherein was the double cave, looking towards Mambre, both it and the cave, and all the trees thereof in all its limits round about,
17于是， 麦比拉 、 幔利 前、 以弗 的那块田和其中的洞，并田间四围的树木，
18Was made sure to Abraham for a possession, in the sight of the children of Heth, and of all that went in at the gate of his city.
18都定准归与 亚伯拉罕 ，乃是他在 赫 人面前并城门出入的人面前买妥的。
19And so Abraham buried Sara his wife, in a double cave of the field, that looked towards Mambre, this is Hebron in the land of Chanaan.
19此后， 亚伯拉罕 把他妻子 撒拉 埋葬在 迦南 地 幔利 前的 麦比拉 田间的洞里。（ 幔利 就是 希伯 ）。
20And the field was made sure to Abraham, and the cave that was in it, for a possession to bury in, by the children of Heth.
20从此，那块田和田间的洞就借着 赫 人定准归与 亚伯拉罕 作坟地。
