< Genesis 23 >

1 And the life of Sarah is one hundred and twenty-seven years—years of the life of Sarah;
Sara sì pé ọmọ ọdún mẹ́tàdínláàádóje.
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.
Ó sì kú ní Kiriati-Arba (ìyẹn ní Hebroni) ní ilẹ̀ Kenaani, Abrahamu lọ láti ṣọ̀fọ̀ àti láti sọkún nítorí Sara.
3 And Abraham rises up from the presence of his dead, and speaks to the sons of Heth, saying,
Abrahamu sì dìde lẹ́gbẹ̀ẹ́ òkú aya rẹ̀, ó sì sọ fún àwọn ará Hiti wí pé,
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.”
“Èmi jẹ́ àtìpó àti àlejò láàrín yín, ẹ ta ilẹ̀ ìsìnkú fún mi kí èmi le sin òkú tí ó kú fún mi sí.”
5 And the sons of Heth answer Abraham, saying to him,
Àwọn ọmọ Hiti dá Abrahamu lóhùn pé,
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.”
“Olúwa mi, gbọ́ tiwa, ó jẹ́ alágbára ọmọ-aládé láàrín wa, sin òkú rẹ sí ibojì tí ó dára jù nínú àwọn ibojì wa, kò sí ẹni tí yóò fi ibojì rẹ dù ọ́ láti sin òkú rẹ sí.”
7 And Abraham rises and bows himself to the people of the land, to the sons of Heth,
Nígbà náà ni Abrahamu dìde, ó sì tẹríba níwájú àwọn ará ilẹ̀ náà, àwọn ará Hiti.
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;
Ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Bí ó bá ṣe pé, lóòótọ́ ni ẹ fẹ́ kí n sin òkú mi kúrò nílẹ̀, ẹ gbọ́ tèmi, ẹ bá mi bẹ Efroni ọmọ Sohari,
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.”
kí ó ta ihò àpáta Makpela tí ó jẹ́ tirẹ̀ fún mi, èyí tí ó wà ni orí oko rẹ̀, kí ó tà á fún mi ni iye owó tí à ń ta irú rẹ̀ fún ilẹ̀ ìsìnkú láàrín yín.”
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,
Efroni ará Hiti sì wà níbẹ̀ pẹ̀lú, ó sì dá Abrahamu lóhùn lójú gbogbo àwọn ará ìlú tí ó wà níbẹ̀, lẹ́nu ibodè ìlú,
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.”
pé, “Rárá, olúwa mi. Gbọ́ tèmi; mo fún ọ ní ilẹ̀ náà àti ihò àpáta tí ó wà níbẹ̀. Mo fún ọ níwájú gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn mi. Sin òkú rẹ síbẹ̀.”
12 And Abraham bows himself before the people of the land,
Abrahamu sì tún tẹríba níwájú àwọn ènìyàn ìlú náà,
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.”
ó sì wí fún Efroni lójú gbogbo wọn pé, “Bí ìwọ bá fẹ́, gbọ́ tèmi, èmi yóò san owó ilẹ̀ náà, gbà á lọ́wọ́ mi kí n lè sin òkú mi síbẹ̀.”
14 And Ephron answers Abraham, saying to him,
Efroni sì dá Abrahamu lóhùn pé,
15 “My lord, hear me: the land—four hundred shekels of silver; between me and you, what [is] it? Bury your dead.”
“Gbọ́ tèmi Olúwa mi, irinwó òsùwọ̀n owó fàdákà ni ilẹ̀ náà, ṣùgbọ́n kín ni ìyẹn já mọ láàrín àwa méjèèjì? Sá à sin òkú rẹ.”
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.
Abrahamu sì gbọ́ tí Efroni wí, Abrahamu sì wọn iye fàdákà náà fún Efroni, tí ó sọ ní etí àwọn ọmọ Hiti, irinwó òsùwọ̀n ṣékélì fàdákà, tí ó kọjá lọ́dọ̀ àwọn oníṣòwò.
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,
Báyìí ni ilẹ̀ Efroni tí ó wà ni Makpela nítòsí Mamre, ilẹ̀ náà àti ihò àpáta tí ó wà nínú rẹ̀ àti gbogbo igi tí ó wà nínú ilẹ̀ náà ni a ṣe ètò rẹ̀ dájú,
18 to Abraham by purchase, before the eyes of the sons of Heth, among all entering the gate of his city.
bí ohun ìní fún Abrahamu níwájú gbogbo ará Hiti tí ó wá sí ẹnu ibodè ìlú náà.
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;
Lẹ́yìn náà ni Abrahamu sin aya rẹ̀ Sara sínú ihò àpáta ní ilẹ̀ Makpela nítòsí Mamre (tí í ṣe Hebroni) ní ilẹ̀ Kenaani.
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.
Ilẹ̀ náà àti ihò àpáta tí ó wà nínú rẹ̀ ni àwọn ará Hiti fi fún Abrahamu gẹ́gẹ́ bí ohun ìní títí láé, bí ilẹ̀ ìsìnkú fún àwọn òkú tí ó bá kú fun un.
