Genesis 23
1 And the life of Sarah came to be, a hundred and twenty-seven years, —the years of the life of Sarah.
Sarah el moul sun yac siofok longoul itkosr matwal.
2 And Sarah died in Kiriath-arba, the same, is Hebron in the land of Canaan, —and Abraham went in to wail for Sarah and to weep for her.
El misa Hebron in acn Canaan, ac Abraham el asor yokna kacl.
3 And Abraham rose up from over the face of his dead, —and spake unto the sons of Heth, saying;
El tuyak liki acn se ma monin mutan kial oan we, ac som nu yurin mwet Hit, ac fahk,
4 A sojourner and settler, am I with you, —Give me a possession of a buryingplace with you, That I may bury my dead, from before me.
“Nga mwetsac se muta inmasrlowos inge. Kukakunma sie ipin acn an nu sik, ngan pikinya mutan kiuk uh we.”
5 And the sons of Heth answered Abraham, saying to him:
Elos topuk,
6 Hear us, my lord! A prince of God, art thou in our midst, In the choice of our buryingplaces, bury thy dead, —Not, a man from among us his, burying-place, will withhold from thee, from burying thy dead.
“Mwet kacto, porongekut. Kut oek mu kom mwet kol fulat ac pwengpeng se. Kom ku in pikinya mutan kiom an ke kulyuk se ma wo emeet lasr uh. Kut nukewa arulana engan in asot sie kulyuk an nu sum, tuh kom fah pikinya mutan kiom an kac.”
7 And Abraham rose up, and bowed himself down to the people of the land, to the sons of Heth;
Na Abraham el pasrla ye mutalos
8 and spake with them, saying, —If it is with the consent of your minds that I should bury my dead from before me, hear me, and intercede for me, with Ephron son of Zohar:
ac fahk, “Kowos fin insese in lela nga in pikinya mutan kiuk uh inge, nunak munas siyuk sel Ephron, wen natul Zohar,
9 That he would give me, the cave of Machpelah, which pertaineth unto him, which is within the bounds of his field, —For full silver, let him give it me in your midst, For a possession of a buryingplace.
elan kukakunma luf se Machpelah, su oanna ke sisken acn lal. Siyuk elan kukakunma nu sik ke molo na pwaye an ye motowos, ac nga fah molela luk mwe kulyuk.”
10 Now, Ephron, was sitting in the midst of the sons of Heth, —so Ephron the Hittite responded to Abraham, in the ears of the sons of Heth, even all that were entering the gate of his city, saying:
In pacl sac, Ephron el wi mwet Hit wial muta ke acn in meeting se ke mutunpot nu in siti uh. Ac el topuk ye mutun mwet nukewa su muta in acn sac,
11 Nay, my lord, hear me, The field, have I given to thee And, the cave that is therein, to thee, have I given it, —In the eyes of the sons of my people, have I given it thee Bury thy dead.
“Mwet kacto, porongeyu. Nga fah sot nu sum ipin acn sac nufon wi pac luf se ma oan we ah. Nga ac sot lom ye mutun mwet luk inge, tuh kom fah ku in pikinya mutan kiom an we.”
12 So Abraham boweth himself down, before the people of the land:
Tusruktu Abraham el pasrla ye mutun mwet Hit uh
13 and spake unto Ephron in the ears of the people of the land saying, Only if, thou, wouldst, hear me, —I have given the silver of the field Take it of me, That I may bury my dead here.
ac fahk nu sel Ephron tuh mwet nukewa in ku in lohng, “Nga siyuk kom in nunak munas lohngwin ma nga ac fahk uh. Nga ac moli ipin acn nufon sac. Sruokya molo uh, tuh nga fah ku in pikinya mutan kiuk uh we.”
14 And Ephron responded to Abraham, saying to him,
Ephron el topuk,
15 My lord, hear me, —Land worth four hundred shekels of silver—betwixt me and thee, what is that? And thy dead., bury thou.
“Mwet kacto, lupan molin acn uh ipin silver angfoko na — lupa se ingan ma na pilasr siktal. Pikinya na mutan kiom an we.”
16 And Abraham hearkened unto Ephron, and Abraham weighed out to Ephron the silver of which he had spoken in the ears of the sons of Heth, —four hundred shekels of silver, current with the merchant,
Abraham el insese nu kac, ac srikeya lupa se ma Ephron el fahk ye mutun mwet ah — ipin silver angfoko, fal nu ke srikasrak ma orekmakinyuk sin mwet kuka.
17 So was confirmed the field of Ephron, which is in Machpelah, which is before Mamre, —the field and the cave which is therein, and all the timber which was in the field, which was in all the boundary thereof round about,
Pa oru acn sel Ephron in Machpelah, su oan kutulap in Mamre, tuh lal Abraham lac ah. Ma Ephron el kitaung uh pa acn ah, luf sac, ac sak nukewa fin acn sac, utyak na nwe ke masrol lal ah.
18 to Abraham as a purchase in the eyes of the sons of Heth, —with all who were entering the gate of his city.
Eteyuk sin mwet Hit nukewa su wi muta in pacl sac lah ma lac lal Abraham pa acn sac.
19 And after this, did Abraham bury Sarah his wife, within the cave of the field of Machpelah, over against Mamre, the same, is Hebron, —in the land of Canaan.
Tukun ma inge, Abraham el piknilya Sarah, mutan kial, in luf se Machpelah in acn Canaan.
20 So was confirmed the field with the cave which was therein to Abraham, for a possession of a buryingplace, —from the sons of Heth.
Ouinge ipin acn se su tuh ma lun mwet Hit ah meet, ac luf se ma oan we, ma lac lal Abraham mwe kulyuk.
