¹

And the life of Sarrha was an hundred and twenty-seven years.

¹

Бы'сть же житїе` са'ррино, лTњ рк~ꙁ,

²

And Sarrha died in the city of Arboc, which is in the valley, this is Chebron in the land of Chanaan; and Abraam came to lament for Sarrha and to mourn.

²

и^ ё^мре са'рра вᲆ гра'дњ аврђ'цњ, и^же е^сть въ раздо'лїи, се же е^сть хевро'нъ въ ꙁемли` ханаа'нстњи” Прїиде же а^враа'мъ би'тися, по саррњ, и^ пла'кати”

³

And Abraam stood up from before his dead; and Abraam spoke to the sons of Chet, saying,

³

И$ въста'въ а^враа'мъ эT мертвеца свое^го, и^ рече сн~омъ хетџе'ѓвоM гл~я,

⁴

I am a sojourner and a stranger among you, give me therefore possession of a burying-place among you, and I will bury my dead away from me.

⁴

ѓ^бита'лецᲆ, прїидохъ а^ꙁъ е^смь въ ва'съ, дади'те ми ё^бо мњ'сто гробђ въ васъ, да погребђ` мр~твецъ сво'и

⁵

And the sons of Chet answered to Abraam, saying, Not so, Sir,

⁵

эTвњщаша сн~ове хетџеѓ^вы, къ а^враамђ гл~юще, н^и, гдsне

⁶

but hear us; thou art in the midst of us a king from God; bury thy dead in our choice sepulchres, for not one of us will by any means withhold his sepulchre from thee, so that thou shouldest not bury thy dead there.

⁶

слђшаи насᲆ цр~ем# эT б~а ты е%си в насъ, въ чтsныхъ гро'бехъ нашихъ погреби` мр~твеца` своя`” Никтоже б^о эT насъ воꙁбрани'тъ гро'ба свое^готебњ, погрести` мр~твеца` своя` в не'мъ”

⁷

And Abraam rose up and did obeisance to the people of the land, to the sons of Chet.

⁷

Въста'в же а^враа'мъ поклони'ся народђ се'лномђ, сн~омъ хеTџе'ѓвыM,

⁸

And Abraam spoke to them, saying, If ye have it in your mind that I should bury my dead out of my sight, hearken to me, and speak for me to Ephron the son of Saar.

⁸

и^ рече к ниM а^враа'мъ гл~я” А/ще и'мате въ ё^мњ с^и, ја^ко погрести` мр~твецъ мои преD лице'мъ моиM” Послђш'аиᲄе мене`, и^ погл~ите ѓ^ мн`ᲇ, е^фронђ саѓ%ровђ,

⁹

And let him give me the double cave which he has, which is in a part of his field, let him give it me for the money it is worth for possession of a burying-place among you.

⁹

да да'стъ м^и пеще'рђ сђгђбђю, ја%же е^сть е^го, с^и еs на предњ'лњ села` е^го, на цњнњ` подобнњ. и^ да дасть ми ее` предъ ва'ми, въ и^мњ'нїе гробђ.

¹⁰

Now Ephron was sitting in the midst of the children of Chet, and Ephron the Chettite answered Abraam and spoke in the hearing of the sons of Chet, and of all who entered the city, saying,

¹⁰

е^фрон же сњдя'ше посредњ сн~овъ хетџе'ѓвъ” И$ эTвњщавъ е^фро'нъ хеTџе'искыи къ а^враа'мђ гл~я, слы'шащимъ сн~ово'мъ хетџе'ѓ^вомъ, и^ всњмъ приходя'щиM въ граD рече” Пристђпи`

¹¹

Attend to me, my lord, and hear me, I give to thee the field and the cave which is in it; I have given it thee before all my countrymen; bury thy dead.

¹¹

здњ гдsне, и^ послђш'аи мене`. село` и^ пеще'рђ ја%же в неM тебњ даю` преD всњми гражданы мои'ми, даю` тебњ, и^ погреби` мр~твецᲆ свои”

¹²

And Abraam did obeisance before the people of the land.

¹²

И$ поклони'ся а^враа'мъ преD наро'домъ насе'лнымъ,

¹³

And he said in the ears of Ephron before the people of the land, Since thou art on my side, hear me; take the price of the field from me, and I will bury my dead there.

¹³

и^ рече е^фронђ въ слы'шанїе преD всњ'мъ наро'домъ насе'лнымъ” Є/лма же е^си по мнњ, послђш'аи же мене`, цњ'нђ се'лнђю въꙁми` ё^ мене, и^ погребђ` мр~твеw свои т^ђ.

¹⁴

But Ephron answered Abraam, saying,

¹⁴

эTвњщав же е^фро'нъ а^враа' мђ гл~я,

¹⁵

Nay, my lord, I have heard indeed, the land is worth four hundred silver didrachms, but what can this be between me and thee? nay, do thou bury thy dead.

¹⁵

н^и, гдsне, слы'шахъ б^о у~. дидра'гмъ сребра`” Межди мною и тобою. чт^о ё^бо е^сть с^е, т^ы ё^бо погреби` сво'и мр~тве'ць та'мъ”

¹⁶

And Abraam hearkened to Ephron, and Abraam rendered to Ephron the money, which he mentioned in the ears of the sons of Chet, four hundred didrachms of silver approved with merchants.

¹⁶

И послђш'а а^врааM, е^фрона и^ даде е^мђ сребро`, е^же гл~а въ слђхъ сн~овъ хеTџеѓ^въ. у~, дидра'гмъ, сребра` чи'сᲄа кђпе'чьска”

¹⁷

And the field of Ephron, which was in Double Cave, which is opposite Mambre, the field and the cave, which was in it, and every tree which was in the field, and whatever is in its borders round about, were made sure

¹⁷

И$ бысть село` е^фро'ново. и^же б^њ въ сђ'гђбњ'и пеще'рњ. е^же е^сᲄь къ маMврїи лицеM, село` и^ пеще'ра ја%же б^њ в немъ, и^ все` садо'вїе е^же б^њ в селњ, и^ е^же е^сть вᲆ предњлеX е^го ѓ^крsт#,

¹⁸

to Abraam for a possession, before the sons of Chet, and all that entered into the city.

¹⁸

а^враа'мђ бысть въ и^мњ'нїе преD сн~ы хеTџеѓ^выми, и^ преD всњми приходя'щими въ граD”

¹⁹

After this Abraam buried Sarrha his wife in the Double Cave of the field, which is opposite Mambre, this is Chebron in the land of Chanaan.

¹⁹

По се'м же погребе` а^врааM са'ррђ женђ` свою, въ пеще'рњ се'лнњи сђгђ'бњи, ја%же е^сть проти'вђ маMврїи се'й е^сть хевро'нъ въ земли` ханаа'ньстњи.

²⁰

So the field and the cave which was in it were made sure to Abraam for possession of a burying place, by the sons of Chet.

²⁰

и^ ё^твержде'но е^сть село` и^ пеще'ра ја%же въ не'мъ а^враа'мови въ и^мᲇнїе гробђ эT сн~овъ хетџеѓ^въ”
