Genesis 23:1-4 ▼

1 The span of Sarah’s life was one hundred and twenty-seven years.

2 She died in Kiriath-arba—now Hebron—in the land of Canaan, and Abraham proceeded to mourn and weep for her.

3 Then he left the side of his deceased wife and addressed the Hittites:

4 “Although I am a resident alien among you, sell me from your holdings a burial place, that I may bury my deceased wife.”
