10 Efroni alikuwa ameketi miongoni mwa wana wa Hethi, hivyo Efroni Mhiti akamjibu Abraham alipowasikia wana wa Hethi, wote ambao walikuwa wamekuja langoni mwa mji wake, akasema,
and Ephron to dwell in/on/with midst son: descendant/people Heth and to answer Ephron [the] Hittite [obj] Abraham in/on/with ear: hearing son: descendant/people Heth to/for all to come (in): come gate city his to/for to say

16 Abraham akamsikiliza Efroni na akampimia Efroni kiwango cha fedha alizosema mbele ya wana wa Helthi wakisikiliza, shekeli mia nne za fedha, kwa mujibu wa viwango vya vipimo vya kibiashara.

17 Kwa hiyo shamba la Efroni, lililokuwa katika Makpela, mbele ya Mamre, shamba pamoja na pango lililokuwamo ndani yake na miti yote iliyokuwamo ndani ya shamba na iliyokuwa mpakani ikatolewa
and to arise: establish land: country Ephron which in/on/with Machpelah which to/for face: east Mamre [the] land: country and [the] cave which in/on/with him and all [the] tree which in/on/with land: country which in/on/with all border: area his around: whole
