heare vs lorde thou art a prynce of God amonge vs. In the chefest of oure sepulchres bury thy dead: None of vs shall forbydd ye his sepulchre yt thou shuldest not bury thy deade therein.
7 Mgbe ahụ, Ebraham biliri kpọọ isiala nʼihu ndị nwe ala, bụ ndị Het,
Abraha stode vp and bowed hi selfe before ye people of ye lade ye childre of heth.
8 sị ha, “Ọ bụrụ ọchịchọ unu ka m lie onye m nwụrụ anwụ, geenụ m ntị ma rịọrọ m Efrọn nwa Zoha,

and let him geue me the dubill caue which he hath in the end of his felde for as moch money as it is worth let him geue it me in the presence of you for a possession to bury in.
10 Efrọn onye Het nʼonwe ya so nọdụ nʼebe ahụ nʼetiti ndị ya. Ọ zara Ebraham nʼihu ndị Het niile bịara nʼọnụ ụzọ ama obodo
For Hephron dwelled amoge ye childern of heth. Than Ephron the Hethite answered Abraham in the audyece of the childern of Heth and of all that went in at the gates of his cyte saynge:
11 sị ya, “Mba! Nna m ukwu, gee m ntị. Ana m enye gị ala ahụ na ọgba dị nʼime ya nʼihu ndị a niile bụ ndị m. Gaa lie onye gị nwụrụ anwụ nʼime ya.”
Not so my lorde but heare me: The felde geue I the and the caue that therein is geue I the also And even in the presence of the sonnes of my people geve I it the to bury thy deede in.
12 Ọzọ Ebraham kpọrọ isiala nye ndị nwe ala,
Than Abraham bowed himselfe before the people of the lade
13 ọ sịrị Efrọn, nʼihu ha niile, “Biko gee m ntị, aga m akwụ gị ọnụahịa iji zụọ ala ahụ. Nara m ya ka m nwee ike lie onye m nwụrụ anwụ nʼime ya.”
and spake vnto Ephro in the audyence of the people of the contre saynge: I praye the heare me I will geue sylver for the felde take it of me ad so will I bury my deed there.
14 Efrọn zara Ebraham,
Ephron answered Abraha saynge vnto him
15 “Gee m ntị, nna m ukwu, ọ bụ ezie na ala ahụ ruru narị shekel ọlaọcha anọ, ma gịnị ka nke a bụ nʼetiti mụ na gị? Gaa lie onye gị nwụrụ anwụ nʼime ya.”
My lorde harken vnto me. The lande is worth iiij. hundreth sycles of syluer: But what is that betwixte the and me? bury thy deede.
16 Ebraham kwenyere nʼego ole Efrọn chọrọ ka ọ kwụọ. O ji ihe ọtụtụ tụpụtara Efrọn ego ruru ọnụahịa ọ kpọrọ aha nʼihu ndị Het niile, narị shekel ọlaọcha anọ, dịka ihe ọtụtụ nke dị nʼoge ahụ nʼetiti ndị na-azụ ahịa.
And Abraham harkened vnto Ephron and weyde him the sylver which he had sayde in the audyence of the sonnes of Heth. Euen. iiij. hudred syluer sycles of currant money amonge marchauntes
17 Site nʼoge ahụ, ala ahụ Efrọn nwere na Makipela, nke dị nso na Mamre, ala ahụ na ọgba dị nʼime ya, na osisi niile dị nʼime ala ahụ niile gburugburu,
Thus was the felde of Ephron where in the dubbill caue is before Mamre: euen the felde and the caue that is therein and all the trees of the felde which growe in all the borders rounde aboute made sure
18 ghọrọ nke Ebraham dịka ihe nzụta ya nʼihu ụmụ Het, nʼihu ndị niile ndị bịara nʼọnụ ụzọ e si abata obodo ahụ.
vnto Abraham for a possession in the syghte of the childern of Heth and of all that went in at the gates of the cyte.
19 Emesịa, Ebraham liri Sera nwunye ya nʼime ọgba ahụ dị nʼala dị na Makipela na nso Mamre (nke dị na Hebrọn) nʼala ndị Kenan.
And then Abraham buried Sara his wyfe in the double caue of the felde that lyeth before Mare otherwise called Ebron in the lande of Canaan.
20 Ya mere, ala ahụ na ọgba dị nʼime ya ka ndị Het resiri Ebraham ka ọ bụrụ nke ya, ebe a na-eli ozu.
And so both the felde ad the caue that is therein was made vnto Abraham a sure possession to bury in of the sonnes of Heth.
