Mui 23
1 Sela da ode 127 esalu.
Sarah lived a hundred and twenty-seven years. These were the years of the life of Sarah.
2 Amalalu, e da Hibalone moilai bai bagade, Ga: ina: ne soge ganodini, amoga bogoi. A: ibalaha: me da amoga ea udama asigiba: le, dimusa: asi.
Sarah died in Kiriath Arba, that is, Hebron, in the land of Canaan. Abraham mourned and wept for Sarah.
3 Amalalu, A:ibalaha: me da ea uda bogoi da: i hodo amoga ouesalu, wa: legadole Hidaide dunuma asili, amane sia: i,
Then Abraham rose up and went from his dead wife, and spoke to the sons of Heth, saying,
4 “Na da dilia fi amo ganodini ga fi dunu esala. Na uda bogoi uli dogoma: ne, soge fonobahadi nama bidi lama.”
“I am a foreigner among you. Please grant me a property for a burial place among you, so that I may bury my dead.”
5 Hidaide dunu da A: ibalaha: mema bu adole i,
The sons of Heth answered Abraham, saying,
6 “Ada! Ninia sia: nabima! Di da ninima gasa bagade ouligisu dunu agoane. Ninia bogoi uli dogoi sogebiga, uli dogoi noga: idafa lama. Ninia huluane da baligili noga: idafa uli dogoi dima imunu hame higamu.”
“Listen to us, my master. You are a prince of God among us. Bury your dead in the choicest of our tombs. None of us will refuse you his tomb, so that you may bury your dead.”
7 Amalalu, A:ibalaha: me da wa: legadole, amo soge esalebe dunu amo Hidaide, ilima begudui.
Abraham arose and bowed down to the people of the land, to the sons of Heth.
8 E da ilima amane sia: i, “Dilia da na bogoi uli dogomusa: hahawane ba: i galea, defea, dilia Ifalone (Souha ea mano) amoma na fidima: ne adole ba: ma.
He spoke to them, saying, “If you agree that I should bury my dead, then hear me and plead with Ephron son of Zohar, for me.
9 Ea soge la: idi ganodini da Ma: gafila gele gelabo. Amo e da gaguiba: le, e da amo ea muni defei na da dilia fi amo ganodini na bogoi uli dogomusa: bidi lama: ne, dilia ema adole ba: ma.”
Ask him to sell me the cave of Machpelah, which he owns, which is at the end of his field. For the full price let him sell it to me publicly as a property for a burial place.”
10 Ifalone e da amo Hidaide fi dunu ea fi ganodini esalebe ba: i. Ilia huluane da moilai logo holeiga gilisi. E da Hidaide dunu huluane nabima: ne, A:ibalaha: mema amane adole i,
Now Ephron was sitting among the sons of Heth, and Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham in the hearing of the sons of Heth, of all those who had come into the gate of his city, saying,
11 “Hame mabu ada! Na sia: nabima! Amo soge amola gele gelabo amo ganodini diala, na da udigili dima imunu. Na dunu huluane ba: ma: ne, na da dima iaha. Dia bogoi amoga uli dogoma!”
“No, my master, hear me. I give you the field, and the cave that is in it. I give it to you in the presence of the sons of my people. I give it to you to bury your dead.”
12 A: ibalaha: me da amo soge fi dunu ilima bu begudui,
Then Abraham bowed himself down before the people of the land.
13 Ilia huluane nabima: ne, e da Ifalonema amane sia: i, “Na da dilima na sia: nabima: ne edegesa. Na da amo soge huluane ea ilegei amo defele bidi lamu. Amo muni lama. Na da na bogoi amoga uli dogomu galebe.”
He spoke to Ephron in the hearing of the people of the land, saying, “But if you are willing, please hear me. I will pay for the field. Take the money from me, and I will bury my dead there.”
14 Ifalone da A: ibalaha: mema bu adole i,
Ephron answered Abraham, saying,
15 “Ada! Nabima! Amo soge bidi lamu defei da silifa fage 400 fawane. Amo muni da anima hamedei liligi. Dia bogoi uli dogoma!”
“Please, my master, listen to me. A piece of land worth four hundred shekels of silver, what is that between me and you? Bury your dead.”
16 A: ibalaha: me da Ifalone ea sia: i hahawane ba: i. E da Hidaide dunu huluane ba: ma: ne, muni ea sia: i defele Ifalonema i. Defei da silifa fage 400 amo ea dioi ilegei defele da bidiga lasu dunu ilia hou defele i.
Abraham listened to Ephron and Abraham weighed out to Ephron the amount of silver that he had spoken in the hearing of the sons of Heth, four hundred shekels of silver, according to the standard measurement of the merchants.
17 Amaiba: le, Ifalone ea sogebi amo da Ma: gafila soge ganodini Ma: melei soge gadenene, - sogebi, gele gelabo amo ganodini dialu amola ifa huluane amo sogebi ganodini, huluane A: ibalaha: me da lai dagoi.
So the field of Ephron, which was in Machpelah, which was next to Mamre, that is, the field, the cave that was in it, and all the trees that were in the field and all around its border, passed
18 Hidaide dunu huluane logo holeiga gilisi da amo hou ba: beba: le, amo soge da wali A: ibalaha: me ea soge ilegei.
to Abraham by purchase in the presence of the sons of Heth, before all those who had come into the gate of his city.
19 Amalalu, A:ibalaha: me da ea uda Sela amo gele gelabo Ma: gafila sogebi ganodini (Ga: ina: ne soge ganodini) uli dogone sali.
After this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field of Machpelah, which is next to Mamre, that is, Hebron, in the land of Canaan.
20 Amola Ma: gafila sogebi amola gele gelabo amo ganodini gala musa: da Hidaide dunu da gagui, amo A: ibalaha: me ea fi bogoi uli dogomusa: bidi lai dagoi.
So the field and the cave in it passed to Abraham as a property for a burial place from the sons of Heth.
