16 And Abraham will listen to Ephron, and Abraham will weigh to Ephron the silver, which he spake in the ears of the sons of Heth, four hundred shekels of silver, passing for traffic.

17 And Ephron's field will stand, which is in Machpelah, which is before the face of Mamra, the field and cave which are in it, and every tree which is in the field, which is in all the bounds round about.

18 To Abraham for a possession before the eyes of the sons of Heth, with all going to the gate of his city.

19 And after this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field of Machpelah, before the face of Mamra: this is Hebron in the land of Canaan.

20 And the field will stand, and the cave which is in it, to Abraham for the possession of a burying place, from the sons of Heth.
