Genesis 23
1 Now Sarah lived for one hundred and twenty-seven years.
HOOKAHI haneri na makahiki me ka iwakaluakumamahiku o Sara: oia na makahiki o ke ola ana o Sara.
2 And she died in the city of Arba, which is Hebron, in the land of Canaan. And Abraham came to mourn and weep for her.
A make aku la o Sara ma Kiriatareba, oia o Heberona ma ka aina o Kanaana; a hele mai la o Aberahama e uwe a e kanikau ia Sara.
3 And when he had risen up from the funeral duties, he spoke to the sons of Heth, saying:
Ka ae la o Aberahama iluna, mai ke alo ae o kana mea i make, olelo aku la ia i na mamo a Heta, i aku la,
4 “I am a newcomer and a sojourner among you. Give me the right of a sepulcher among you, so that I may bury my dead.”
He malihini no wau e noho wale ana me oukou: e haawi mai i ilina iwaena o oukou, i lilo ia no'u, i kanu aku au i kuu mea i make, mai ko'u mau maka aku.
5 The sons of Heth responded by saying:
Olelo mai na mamo a Heta ia Aberahama, i mai la ia ia,
6 “Hear us, O lord, you are a leader of God among us. Bury your dead in our chosen sepulchers. And no man shall be able to prohibit you from burying your dead within his memorial.”
E hoolohe mai oe i ka makou, e kuu haku: he alii nui no oe iwaena o makou; ma ka ilina maikai loa o makou, e kanu iho ai oe i kau mea make: aole e aua kekahi o makou i kona ilina ia oe, i ole oe e kanu i kou mea make.
7 Abraham arose, and he reverenced the people of the land, namely, the sons of Heth.
Ka ae la o Aberahama, a kulou iho la imua o na kanaka o ka aina, o na mamo a Heta.
8 And he said to them: “If it pleases your soul that I should bury my dead, hear me, and intercede on my behalf with Ephron, the son of Zohar,
Kamailio aku la ia me lakou, i aku la, Ina o ko oukou manao ia, i kanu iho ai au i kuu mea make mai o'u mau maka aku; e hoolohe mai, a e noi aka oukou ia Eperona ke keiki a Zohara no'u;
9 so that he may give me the double cave, which he has at the far end of his field. He may transfer it to me for as much money as it is worth in your sight, for the possession of a sepulcher.”
I haawi mai ai oia i ke ana o Makepela no'u; nona no ia, aia no ma ka palena o kana mahinaai; no na kala e pono ke kuai, e haawi mai no oia ia wahi no'u i ilina iwaena o oukou.
10 Now Ephron dwelt in the midst of the sons of Heth. And Ephron responded to Abraham in the hearing of everyone who was entering at the gate of his city, saying:
Noho pa iho la o Eperona me na mamo a Heta: olelo mai la o Eperona ka Heta ia Aberahama, ma ka lohe o na mamo a Heta, a o ka poe a pau i komo ma ka ipuka o ke kulanakauhale, i mai la,
11 “Let it never be so, my lord, but you should pay greater heed to what I say. The field I will transfer to you, and the cave that is in it. In the presence of the sons of my people, bury your dead.”
E kuu haku, e hoolohe mai oe ia'u: ke haawi wale aku nei au i ka mahinaai a me ke ana maloko, nou, ke haawi aku nei au nou ia wahi: imua o na keiki a o'u poe kanaka, ke haawi aku nei au nou ia wahi: e kanu aku oe i kau mea make.
12 Abraham reverenced in the sight of the people of the land.
Kulou iho la o Aberahama ilalo, imua o na kanaka o ia aina.
13 And he spoke to Ephron, standing in the midst of the people: “I ask you to hear me. I will give you money for the field. Take it, and so I will bury my dead in it.”
I aku la oia ia Eperona ma ka lohe o na kanaka o ia aina, i ka i ana, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e hoolohe mai oe ia'u, Ina e ae mai oe, e haawi aku no wau i ke kala no ua mahinaai la; e lawe oe i ka'u, a e kanu no wau i kau mea make ilaila.
14 And Ephron responded: “My lord, hear me.
Olelo mai la o Eperona ia Aberahama, i mai la ia ia,
15 The land that you request is worth four hundred shekels of silver. This is the price between me and you. But how much is this? Bury your dead.”
E kuu haku, e hoolohe mai ia'u, eha haneri sekela kala ke kumukuai o ia aina; heaha hoi ia iwaena o kaua? e kanu hoi oe i kau mea make.
16 And when Abraham had heard this, he weighed out the money that Ephron had requested, in the hearing of the sons of Heth, four hundred shekels of silver, of the approved public currency.
Ae mai la o Aberahama ia Eperona; a kaupouna iho la o Aberahama no Eperona i ke kala ana i olelo ai ma ka lohe o na mamo a Heta, eha haneri sekela kala, he kala pono i ka poe kuai.
17 And having confirmed that the field, in which there was a double cave overlooking Mamre, formerly belonged to Ephron, both it and the sepulcher, and all its trees, with all its surrounding limits,
A ua hoolilo paa ia ka mahinaai a Eperona ma Makepela, ma ke alo o Mamere, o ka mahinaai me ke ana maloko, a me na laau a pau o na mahinaai la, a e puni ana ma na palena a pau,
18 Abraham took it as a possession, in the sight of the sons of Heth and of everyone who was entering at the gate of his city.
No Aberahama i wahi nona ma ke alo o na mamo a Heta, imua hoi o ka poe a pau i komo ma ka ipuka o kona kulanakauhale.
19 So then, Abraham buried his wife Sarah in the double cave of the field that overlooked Mamre. This is Hebron in the land of Canaan.
Mahope iho, kanu iho la o Aberahama i kana wahine ia Sara iloko o ke ana ma ka mahinaai o Makepela ma ke alo o Mamere: oia o Heberona i ka aina o Kanaana.
20 And the field was confirmed to Abraham, with the cave that was in it, as a memorial possession before the sons of Heth.
Ua hoolilo paa ia ka mahinaai a me ke ana maloko, no Aberahama i ilina nona, e na mamo a Heta.
