Genesis 23:7 WEB

⁵  The children of Heth answered Abraham, saying to him,

⁶  'Hear us, my lord. You are a prince of God among us. In the choice of our tombs bury your dead. None of us will withhold from you his tomb, but that you may bury your dead.'

⁷  Abraham rose up, and bowed himself to the people of the land, even to the children of Heth.

⁸  He talked with them, saying, 'If it be your mind that I should bury my dead out of my sight, hear me, and entreat for me to Ephron the son of Zohar,

⁹  that he may give me the cave of Machpelah, which he has, which is in the end of his field. For the full price let him give it to me in the midst of you for a possession of a burying-place.'
