Genesis 23:7-9 ▼

7 Abraham, however, proceeded to bow low before the people of the land, the Hittites,

8 and said to them: “If you will allow me room for burial of my dead, listen to me! Intercede for me with Ephron, son of Zohar,

9 so that he will sell me the cave of Machpelah that he owns; it is at the edge of his field. Let him sell it to me in your presence at its full price for a burial place.”
