Jenesis 23
1 Sera'a 127ni'a zagegafu maniteno,
Sarah lived 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.
Sarah died in Kiriath Arba, that is, Hebron, in the land of Canaan. Abraham mourned and wept for Sarah.
3 Sera fri kerfare'ma Abrahamu'a mani'nereti netreno otino Hiti mofavre'zaga amanage huno ome zamantahige'ne.
Then Abraham rose up and went from his dead wife, 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 foreigner among you. Please grant me a property for a burial place among you, so that I may bury my dead.”
5 Hige'za Hiti mofavre naga'moza amanage hu'za Abrahamuna asami'naze.
The sons of Heth answered Abraham, saying,
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.
“Listen to us, my master. You are a prince of God among us. Bury your dead in the choicest of our tombs. None of us will refuse you his tomb, so that you may bury your dead.”
7 Abrahamu'a Hiti mofavre'mokizmi zamufi otino, Maka vahe zamufi kepri huno anage hu'ne.
Abraham arose 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.
He spoke to them, saying, “If you agree that I should bury my dead, then hear me and plead with Ephron son of Zohar, for me.
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.
Ask him to sell me the cave of Machpelah, which he owns, which is at the end of his field. For the full price let him sell it to me publicly as a property for a burial place.”
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,
Now Ephron was sitting among the sons of Heth, and Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham in the hearing of the sons of Heth, of all those who had come into 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 master, hear me. I give you the field, and the cave that is in it. I give it to you in the presence of the sons of my people. I give it to you to bury your dead.”
12 Anage higeno Abrahamu'a antahima ami'za kazigati maka vahe zamufi kepri hu'ne.
Then Abraham bowed himself 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.
He spoke to Ephron in the hearing of the people of the land, saying, “But if you are willing, please hear me. I will pay for the field. Take the money from me, and I will bury my dead there.”
14 Efroni'a ana naneke nentahino, amanage huno Abrahamuna kenona'a asami'ne.
Ephron answered Abraham, saying,
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.
“Please, my master, listen to me. A piece of land worth four hundred shekels of silver, what is that between me and you? Bury your 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.
Abraham listened to Ephron and Abraham weighed out to Ephron the amount of silver that he had spoken in the hearing of the sons of Heth, four hundred shekels of silver, according to the standard measurement of the merchants.
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 in Machpelah, which was next to Mamre, that is, the field, the cave that was in it, and all the trees that were in the field and all around its border, passed
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.
to Abraham by purchase in the presence of the sons of Heth, before all those who had come into 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.
After this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field of Machpelah, which is next 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.
So the field and the cave in it passed to Abraham as a property for a burial place from the sons of Heth.
