Genesis 23
1 And the life of Sarah is one hundred and twenty-seven years—years of the life of Sarah;
Sarah teh kum 127 touh a hring. Sarah e a hringnae kum teh ama het doeh toe.
2 and Sarah dies in Kirjath-Arba, which [is] Hebron, in the land of Canaan, and Abraham goes to mourn for Sarah, and to lament her.
Sarah teh Kanaan ram Hebron tie Kiriatharba kho dawk a due. Abraham hai Sarah kecu dawk khuika hanelah a tho.
3 And Abraham rises up from the presence of his dead, and speaks to the sons of Heth, saying,
Hahoi Abraham teh a yu e ro hmalah a kangdue teh Hit taminaw koe,
4 “A sojourner and a settler I [am] with you; give to me a possession of a burying-place with you, and I bury my dead from before me.”
Kai teh nangmouh koe imyin hoi kahlong tami lah doeh ka o. Ka yu e ro ka pakawp nahanelah nangmouh koe e talai lem na poe awh haw atipouh.
5 And the sons of Heth answer Abraham, saying to him,
Hit taminaw ni Abraham koe a dei pouh e teh,
6 “Hear us, my lord; a prince of God [are] you in our midst; in the choice of our burying-places bury your dead: none of our burying-places do we withhold from you, from burying your dead.”
Ka bawipa kaimae lawk thai haw, nang teh kaimouh rahak vah Cathut e khobawi doeh. Hatdawkvah na ngai e hmuen rawi nateh pakawp ngoun. Na tami ro pakawp nahanelah apinihai phuen hmuen pasoung hoeh laipalah awm mahoeh, telah atipouh awh.
7 And Abraham rises and bows himself to the people of the land, to the sons of Heth,
Hathnukkhu, Abraham teh a thaw teh, Hit taminaw hoi hote ram dawk e taminaw hmalah a tabo.
8 and he speaks with them, saying, “If it is your desire to bury my dead from before me, hear me, and meet for me with Ephron, son of Zoar;
Hahoi, ahnimouh koe, ka tami ro pakawp nahanelah, na lungkuep awh pawiteh ka lawk thai awh haw.
9 and he gives to me the cave of Machpelah, which he has, which [is] in the extremity of his field; for full money does he give it to me, in your midst, for a possession of a burying-place.”
Nangmouh koe, phuen hmuen ka tawn thai nahanelah, Zohar capa Ephron ni, amae law apout koe lah kaawm e Makpelah talungkhu hah, aphu hoi kâki lah kai koe a yo thai nahane, ahni koe na het pouh haw loe, telah atipouh.
10 And Ephron is sitting in the midst of the sons of Heth, and Ephron the Hittite answers Abraham in the ears of the sons of Heth, of all those entering the gate of his city, saying,
Hat torei teh Hit taminaw koe Ephron teh a tahung. Hit tami Ephron ni khopui longkha dawk hoi ka kâen e Hit taminaw pueng ni a thainae koe,
11 “No, my lord, hear me: the field I have given to you, and the cave that [is] in it, to you I have given it; before the eyes of the sons of my people I have given it to you—bury your dead.”
Telah nahoeh, ka bawipa law na poe awh, law thung kaawm e talungkhu hai na poe awh. Ka miphunnaw hmaitung roeroe na poe awh, na tami ro teh pakawp leih telah Abraham koe atipouh.
12 And Abraham bows himself before the people of the land,
Abraham teh, hote ram dawk e taminaw hmalah a tabo teh,
13 and speaks to Ephron in the ears of the people of the land, saying, “Only—if you would hear me—I have given the money of the field—accept from me, and I bury my dead there.”
Ram dawk e taminaw ni a thainae koe Ephron hanelah na lungkuep pawiteh thai haw, law hmuen phu teh na poe han. Aphu dâw leih, hote hmuen koe ka tami ro teh ka pakawp han atipouh.
14 And Ephron answers Abraham, saying to him,
Ephron ni Abraham koe,
15 “My lord, hear me: the land—four hundred shekels of silver; between me and you, what [is] it? Bury your dead.”
Ka bawipa, ka lawk thai haw, ka law hmuen phu tangka (shekel) cumpali touh doeh. Nang hoi kai hanlah banghai bang nahoeh. Na tami ro teh pakawp yaw kaw telah atipouh.
16 And Abraham listens to Ephron, and Abraham weighs to Ephron the silver which he has spoken of in the ears of the sons of Heth, four hundred silver shekels, passing with the merchant.
Abraham ni a lungkuepkhai teh, Hit taminaw ni a thainae koe tangka shekel cumpali touh hno kayawtnaw ni a khing e patetlah a khing teh a poe.
17 And established are the field of Ephron, which [is] in Machpelah, which [is] before Mamre, the field and the cave which [is] in it, and all the trees which [are] in the field, which [are] around all its border,
Hatdawkvah Mamre kho hoi kanîtholah, Makpelah hmuen koe kaawm e Ephron e law, law thung kaawm e talungkhu hoi thingkungnaw, lawri koe kaawm e thingkung pueng,
18 to Abraham by purchase, before the eyes of the sons of Heth, among all entering the gate of his city.
Hit taminaw hoi khopui longkha koe ka tho e tami pueng e hmaitung vah Abraham ni coe hanelah a poe.
19 And after this Abraham has buried his wife Sarah at the cave of the field of Machpelah before Mamre (which [is] Hebron), in the land of Canaan;
Hathnukkhu, Abraham ni Mamre kho, Hebron hoi kanîtholah, Makpelah law dawk e talungkhu dawk a yu Sarah teh a pakawp.
20 and established are the field, and the cave which [is] in it, to Abraham for a possession of a burying-place, from the sons of Heth.
Hatdawkvah lawhmuen hoi talungkhu teh, Abraham ni phuen hmuen lah, a tawn hanelah, Hit taminaw ni a poe.
