Genesis 23
1 And Sarah was a hundred and twenty-seven years old: [these were] the years of the life of Sarah.
| وَكَانَتْ حَيَاةُ سَارَةَ مِئَةً وَسَبْعًا وَعِشْرِينَ سَنَةً، سِنِي حَيَاةِ سَارَةَ. | ١ |
2 And Sarah died in Kirjath-arba; the same [is] Hebron in the land of Canaan: And Abraham came to mourn for Sarah, and to weep for her.
| وَمَاتَتْ سَارَةُ فِي قَرْيَةِ أَرْبَعَ، ٱلَّتِي هِيَ حَبْرُونُ، فِي أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ. فَأَتَى إِبْرَاهِيمُ لِيَنْدُبَ سَارَةَ وَيَبْكِيَ عَلَيْهَا. | ٢ |
3 And Abraham stood up from before his dead, and spoke to the sons of Heth, saying,
| وَقَامَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ مِنْ أَمَامِ مَيِّتِهِ وَكَلَّمَ بَنِي حِثَّ قَائِلًا: | ٣ |
4 I [am] a stranger and a sojourner with you; give me a possession of a burying-place with you, that I may bury my dead out of my sight.
| «أَنَا غَرِيبٌ وَنَزِيلٌ عِنْدَكُمْ. أَعْطُونِي مُلْكَ قَبْرٍ مَعَكُمْ لِأَدْفِنَ مَيْتِي مِنْ أَمَامِي». | ٤ |
5 And the children of Heth answered Abraham, saying to him,
| فَأَجَابَ بَنُو حِثَّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَائِلِينَ لَهُ: | ٥ |
6 Hear us, my lord; thou [art] a mighty prince among us: in the choice of our sepulchers bury thy dead: none of us will withhold from thee his sepulcher, but that thou mayest bury thy dead.
| «اِسْمَعْنَا يَا سَيِّدِي. أَنْتَ رَئِيسٌ مِنَ ٱللهِ بَيْنَنَا. فِي أَفْضَلِ قُبُورِنَا ٱدْفِنْ مَيْتَكَ، لَا يَمْنَعُ أَحَدٌ مِنَّا قَبْرَهُ عَنْكَ حَتَّى لَا تَدْفِنَ مَيْتَكَ». | ٦ |
7 And Abraham stood up and bowed himself to the people of the land, to the children of Heth.
| فَقَامَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ وَسَجَدَ لِشَعْبِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، لِبَنِي حِثَّ، | ٧ |
8 And he communed with them, saying, If it is your mind that I should bury my dead out of my sight, hear me, and entreat for me to Ephron the son of Zohar,
| وَكَلَّمَهُمْ قَائِلًا: «إِنْ كَانَ فِي نُفُوسِكُمْ أَنْ أَدْفِنَ مَيْتِي مِنْ أَمَامِي، فَٱسْمَعُونِي وَٱلْتَمِسُوا لِي مِنْ عِفْرُونَ بْنِ صُوحَرَ | ٨ |
9 That he may give me the cave of Machpelah, which he hath, which [is] in the end of his field; for as much money as it is worth he shall give it me, for a possession of a burying-place among you.
| أَنْ يُعْطِيَنِي مَغَارَةَ ٱلْمَكْفِيلَةِ ٱلَّتِي لَهُ، ٱلَّتِي فِي طَرَفِ حَقْلِهِ. بِثَمَنٍ كَامِلٍ يُعْطِينِي إِيَّاهَا فِي وَسَطِكُمْ مُلْكَ قَبْرٍ». | ٩ |
10 And Ephron dwelt among the children of Heth. And Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham in the audience of the children of Heth, of all that entered the gates of his city, saying,
| وَكَانَ عِفْرُونُ جَالِسًا بَيْنَ بَنِي حِثَّ، فَأَجَابَ عِفْرُونُ ٱلْحِثِّيُّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ فِي مَسَامِعِ بَنِي حِثَّ، لَدَى جَمِيعِ ٱلدَّاخِلِينَ بَابَ مَدِينَتِهِ قَائِلًا: | ١٠ |
11 Nay, my lord, hear me: the field give I to thee, and the cave that [is] in it, I give it to thee; in the presence of the sons of my people I give it to thee: bury thy dead.
| «لَا يَا سَيِّدِي، ٱسْمَعْنِي. اَلْحَقْلُ وَهَبْتُكَ إِيَّاهُ، وَٱلْمَغَارَةُ ٱلَّتِي فِيهِ لَكَ وَهَبْتُهَا. لَدَى عُيُونِ بَنِي شَعْبِي وَهَبْتُكَ إِيَّاهَا. ٱدْفِنْ مَيْتَكَ». | ١١ |
12 And Abraham bowed himself before the people of the land.
| فَسَجَدَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ أَمَامَ شَعْبِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، | ١٢ |
13 And he spoke to Ephron in the audience of the people of the land, saying, But if thou [wilt give it], I pray thee, hear me: I will give thee money for the field: take [it] of me, and I will bury my dead there.
| وَكَلَمَ عِفْرُونَ فِي مَسَامِعِ شَعْبِ ٱلْأَرْضِ قَائِلًا: «بَلْ إِنْ كُنْتَ أَنْتَ إِيَّاهُ فَلَيْتَكَ تَسْمَعُنِي. أُعْطِيكَ ثَمَنَ ٱلْحَقْلِ. خُذْ مِنِّي فَأَدْفِنَ مَيْتِي هُنَاكَ». | ١٣ |
14 And Ephron answered Abraham, saying to him,
| فَأَجَابَ عِفْرُونُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَائِلًا لَهُ: | ١٤ |
15 My lord, hearken to me: the land [is worth] four hundred shekels of silver; what [is] that betwixt me and thee? bury therefore thy dead.
| «يَا سَيِّدِي، ٱسْمَعْنِي. أَرْضٌ بِأَرْبَعِ مِئَةِ شَاقِلِ فِضَّةٍ، مَا هِيَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكَ؟ فَٱدْفِنْ مَيْتَكَ». | ١٥ |
16 And Abraham hearkened to Ephron; and Abraham weighed to Ephron the silver which he had named in the audience of the sons of Heth, four hundred shekels of silver, current [money] with the merchant.
| فَسَمِعَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ لِعِفْرُونَ، وَوَزَنَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ لِعِفْرُونَ ٱلْفِضَّةَ ٱلَّتِي ذَكَرَهَا فِي مَسَامِعِ بَنِي حِثَّ. أَرْبَعَ مِئَةِ شَاقِلِ فِضَّةٍ جَائِزَةٍ عِنْدَ ٱلتُّجَّارِ. | ١٦ |
17 And the field of Ephron, which [was] in Machpelah, which [was] before Mamre, the field and the cave which [was] in it, and all the trees that [were] in the field, that [were] in all the borders round about, were made sure
| فَوَجَبَ حَقْلُ عِفْرُونَ ٱلَّذِي فِي ٱلْمَكْفِيلَةِ ٱلَّتِي أَمَامَ مَمْرَا، ٱلْحَقْلُ وَٱلْمَغَارَةُ ٱلَّتِي فِيهِ، وَجَمِيعُ ٱلشَّجَرِ ٱلَّذِي فِي ٱلْحَقْلِ ٱلَّذِي فِي جَمِيعِ حُدُودِهِ حَوَالَيْهِ، | ١٧ |
18 To Abraham for a possession in the presence of the children of Heth, before all that entered the gate of his city.
| لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ مُلْكًا لَدَى عُيُونِ بَنِي حِثَّ، بَيْنَ جَمِيعِ ٱلدَّاخِلِينَ بَابَ مَدِينَتِهِ. | ١٨ |
19 And after this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field of Machpelah, before Mamre: the same [is] Hebron in the land of Canaan.
| وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ دَفَنَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ سَارَةَ ٱمْرَأَتَهُ فِي مَغَارَةِ حَقْلِ ٱلْمَكْفِيلَةِ أَمَامَ مَمْرَا، ٱلَّتِي هِيَ حَبْرُونُ، فِي أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ، | ١٩ |
20 And the field, and the cave that [is] in it were made sure to Abraham for a possession of a burying-place, by the sons of Heth.
| فَوَجَبَ ٱلْحَقْلُ وَٱلْمَغَارَةُ ٱلَّتِي فِيهِ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ مُلْكَ قَبْرٍ مِنْ عِنْدِ بَنِي حِثَّ. | ٢٠ |
