1 Sera'a 127ni'a zagegafu maniteno,
And the life of Sarah was a hundred and twenty-seven years: [these were] the years of the life of Sarah.
2 Kiriat-arba kumate fri'ne. Menina ana kumara Kenani mopafi me'neankino, Hebronie hu'za nehaze. Hanki Abrahamu'a tusi'za huno Serankura asunku nehuno zavi ate'ne.
And Sarah died in Kirjath-Arba: that is Hebron, in the land of Canaan. And Abraham came to mourn for Sarah, and to weep for her.
3 Sera fri kerfare'ma Abrahamu'a mani'nereti netreno otino Hiti mofavre'zaga amanage huno ome zamantahige'ne.
And Abraham rose up from before his dead, and spoke to the sons of Heth, saying,
4 Tamagra antahi'naze, nagra mopa agafa nera omani'noanki, amne tamagri mopafi emani'noe. Hagi a'nimo'a fri'nege'na mopa miza hu'na anampi ome asenteku tamantahinegoe.
I am a stranger and a sojourner with you; give me a possession of a sepulchre with you, that I may bury my dead from before me.
5 Hige'za Hiti mofavre naga'moza amanage hu'za Abrahamuna asami'naze.
And the sons of Heth answered Abraham, saying to him,
6 Kama antahio ra ne'moka, kagra ra kva ne' tagranena mani'nane. Knare'ma huno kavesinia matipi asenteku'ma hananketa, amne kamigahune. Hagi aza'o ana matimofo nafa'a mani'nenimo'a i'o osugahie. Amne kamina ana matimatipina ome asentegahane.
Hear us, my lord: thou art a prince of God among us: in the choicest of our sepulchres bury thy dead: none of us shall withhold from thee his sepulchre for burying thy dead.
7 Abrahamu'a Hiti mofavre'mokizmi zamufi otino, Maka vahe zamufi kepri huno anage hu'ne.
And Abraham rose up, and bowed down to the people of the land, to the sons of Heth,
8 Hanki antahiho! A' ka'ama asentesane hanuta, nagri nagi erita vuta Zohari nemofo, Efroni'ene ome keaga hiho.
and spoke to them, saying, If it be your will that I should bury my dead from before me, hear me, and entreat for me Ephron the son of Zohar,
9 Ome antahigenkeno Makpela mopa naminke'na, ana mopa agentega havegampi Serana ome asentaneno. Ana mopamo'a nagri'za segahie. Hanki hu izoma hanige'na hakaremota tamufi ana mopa mizahu fatgo hugahue.
that he may give me the cave of Machpelah, which is his, which is at the end of his field; for the full money let him give it to me amongst you for a possession of a sepulchre.
10 Hankino Efroni'a ana Hiti mofavre'mokizmi amunompi mani'ne. Efroni'a Hiti ne'kino rankuma'mofo kafante emani'naza vahe'mokizmi zamagesafi, ke nona'a huno Abrahamuna asami'ne,
And Ephron was dwelling among the sons of Heth. And Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham, in the ears of the sons of Heth, [even] of all that went in at the gate of his city, saying,
11 Efroni'a amanage hu'ne, ra ne'moka kama antahio, havegana miza osegahane. E'i ana mopane haveganena maka'a naga'nimokizmi zamufi huvempa hu'na meni ana mopa kamigahue. Kamisnugenka anampi fri kerfa'a ome asente'gahane.
No, my lord: hear me. The field give I thee; and the cave that is in it, to thee I give it; before the eyes of the sons of my people give I it thee: bury thy dead.
12 Anage higeno Abrahamu'a antahima ami'za kazigati maka vahe zamufi kepri hu'ne.
And Abraham bowed down before the people of the land;
13 Abrahamu'a ana vahe zamufi amanage huno Efronina asami'ne. Efroniga muse (plis) hugantoanki kama antahio, nagra menina ana mopa miza hugahue. Hanki zagoma kamisnuana, erige'na ana mopafi a'nimofo fri kerfa ome asenta'neno.
and he spoke to Ephron, in the ears of the people of the land, saying, But if only thou wouldst listen to me, I give the money for the field: take [it] of me, and I will bury my dead there.
14 Efroni'a ana naneke nentahino, amanage huno Abrahamuna kenona'a asami'ne.
And Ephron answered Abraham, saying to him,
15 Kama antahio, ra vahe'moka, ama mopamofo mizama'a 400'a silva me'neanagi amu'nonti'afina osi'zane. Amne fri kerfa'a ome asentegahane.
My lord, hearken to me. A field of four hundred shekels of silver, what is that between me and thee? bury therefore thy dead.
16 E'inage nehigeno Abrahamu'a mago rimpa nehuno, mago'a zago'a refko huno Efroni eme ami'ne. Efroni'a agra'a kehia avamente 400 ti'a silva zago hakare vahe zamufi eme ami'ne.
And Abraham hearkened to Ephron; and Abraham weighed to Ephron the money that he had named in the ears of the sons of Heth — four hundred shekels of silver, current with the merchant.
17 Efroni mopa Makpela Mamre kazigama avugosama hunte'nea mopa erigeno, ana mopafima me'nea havegane, zafane, mopane, hakarezanena ami vagare'ne.
So the field of Ephron, which was at Machpelah, which was before Mamre, the field, and the cave that was in it, and all the trees that were in the field, that were in all its borders round about,
18 Hanki hakare'zana Abrahamu'ma eri nafa'a hanigu Hiti ne'mofavre naga'mo'za ran kuma'mofo kahante ke refko nehaza vahe'zmufi ami vagare'naze.
were assured to Abraham for a possession before the eyes of the sons of Heth, before all who went in at the gate of his city.
19 E'ina huteno Abrahamu'a Serana Makpela havegampi, Mamre kaziga avugosa hunte'nea havegampi ome asente'ne. Ana kuma agi'a Hebron hu'za nehaza kumakino, Kenani mopafi me'ne.
And after this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field at Machpelah, opposite to Mamre: that is Hebron, in the land of Canaan.
20 Mopane, havegane anampima me'nea zanena, Abrahamu naga'ma asezmante mope hu'za Hiti mofavre naga'mo'za ami vagare'naze.
And the field and the cave that was in it were assured to Abraham for a possession of a sepulchre by the sons of Heth.
