Genesis 23:9 BBE

⁷  And Abraham got up and gave honour to the children of Heth, the people of that land.

⁸  And he said to them, If you will let me put my dead to rest here, make a request for me to Ephron, the son of Zohar,

⁹  That he will give me the hollow in the rock named Machpelah, which is his property at the end of his field; let him give it to me for its full price as a resting-place for my dead among you.

¹⁰  Now Ephron was seated among the children of Heth: and Ephron the Hittite gave Abraham his answer in the hearing of the children of Heth, and of all those who came into his town, saying,

¹¹  No, my lord, I will give you the field with the hollow in the rock; before all the children of my people will I give it to you for a resting-place for your dead.
