¹

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

¹

Бы́сть же житїѐ са́ррино лѣ́тъ сто̀ два́десѧть се́дмь.

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

И҆ оу҆́мре са́рра во гра́дѣ а҆рво́цѣ, и҆́же є҆́сть въ раздо́лїи: се́й є҆́сть хеврѡ́нъ въ землѝ ханаа́нстѣй. Прїи́де же а҆враа́мъ рыда́ти по са́ррѣ и҆ пла́кати.

³

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

³

И҆ воста̀ а҆враа́мъ ѿ мертвеца̀ своегѡ̀ и҆ речѐ сынѡ́мъ хетте́ѡвымъ, глаго́лѧ:

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

пресе́лникъ и҆ пришле́цъ а҆́зъ є҆́смь оу҆ ва́съ, дади́те мѝ оу҆̀бо стѧжа́нїе гро́ба междꙋ̀ ва́ми, да погребꙋ̀ мертвеца̀ моего̀ ѿ менє̀.

⁵

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

⁵

Ѿвѣща́ша же сы́нове хетте́ѡвы ко а҆враа́мꙋ, глаго́люще: нѝ, господи́не:

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

послꙋ́шай же на́съ: ца́рь ѿ бг҃а ты̀ є҆сѝ въ на́съ: во и҆збра́нныхъ гробѣ́хъ на́шихъ погребѝ мертвеца̀ твоего̀: никто́же бо ѿ на́съ возбрани́тъ гро́ба своегѡ̀ ѿ тебє̀, є҆́же погребстѝ мертвеца̀ твоего̀ та́мѡ.

⁷

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

⁷

Воста́въ же а҆враа́мъ поклони́сѧ наро́дꙋ землѝ, сынѡ́мъ хетте́ѡвымъ,

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

и҆ речѐ къ ни̑мъ а҆враа́мъ, глаго́лѧ: а҆́ще и҆́мате въ дꙋшѝ ва́шей, ꙗ҆́кѡ погребстѝ мертвеца̀ моего̀ ѿ лица̀ моегѡ̀, послꙋ́шайте менѐ и҆ рцы́те ѡ҆ мнѣ̀ є҆фрѡ́нꙋ саа́ровꙋ:

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

и҆ да да́стъ мѝ пеще́рꙋ сꙋгꙋ́бꙋю, ꙗ҆́же є҆́сть є҆гѡ̀, сꙋ́щꙋю на ча́сти села̀ є҆гѡ̀: сребро́мъ досто́йнымъ да да́стъ мѝ ю҆̀ оу҆ ва́съ въ стѧжа́нїе гро́ба.

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

Є҆фрѡ́нъ же сѣдѧ́ше посредѣ̀ сынѡ́въ хетте́овыхъ. Ѿвѣща́въ же є҆фрѡ́нъ хетте́йскїй ко а҆враа́мꙋ, речѐ слы́шащымъ сынѡ́мъ хетте́ѡвымъ и҆ всѣ̑мъ приходѧ́щымъ во гра́дъ, глаго́лѧ:

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

оу҆ менє̀ бꙋ́ди, господи́не, и҆ послꙋ́шай менѐ: село̀ и҆ пеще́рꙋ ꙗ҆́же въ не́мъ, тебѣ̀ даю̀: пред̾ всѣ́ми гра́жданы мои́ми да́хъ тебѣ̀, погребѝ мертвеца̀ твоего̀.

¹²

And Abraam did obeisance before the people of the land.

¹²

И҆ поклони́сѧ а҆враа́мъ пред̾ наро́домъ землѝ

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

и҆ речѐ є҆фрѡ́нꙋ во оу҆шеса̀ пред̾ всѣ́мъ наро́домъ землѝ: поне́же по мнѣ̀ є҆сѝ, послꙋ́шай менѐ: сребро̀ села̀ возмѝ оу҆ менє̀, и҆ погребꙋ̀ мертвеца̀ моего̀ та́мѡ.

¹⁴

But Ephron answered Abraam, saying,

¹⁴

Ѿвѣща́ же є҆фрѡ́нъ а҆враа́мꙋ, глаго́лѧ:

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

нѝ, господи́не: слы́шахъ бо, ꙗ҆́кѡ землѧ̀ четы́рехъ сѡ́тъ дїдра́хмъ сребра̀: но что̀ бы́ло бы сїѐ междꙋ̀ мно́ю и҆ тобо́ю; ты́ же мертвеца̀ твоего̀ погребѝ.

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

И҆ послꙋ́ша а҆враа́мъ є҆фрѡ́на, и҆ дадѐ а҆враа́мъ є҆фрѡ́нꙋ сребро̀, є҆́же глаго́ла во оу҆шеса̀ сынѡ́въ хетте́овыхъ, четы́ре ста̀ дїдра́хмъ сребра̀ и҆скꙋше́на кꙋпца́ми.

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

И҆ бы́сть село̀ є҆фрѡ́ново, є҆́же бѣ̀ въ сꙋгꙋ́бѣй пеще́рѣ, є҆́же є҆́сть лице́мъ къ мамврі́и, село̀ и҆ пеще́ра ꙗ҆́же бѣ̀ въ не́мъ, и҆ всѧ́кое дре́во, є҆́же бѣ̀ на селѣ̀, и҆ всѐ є҆́же є҆́сть въ предѣ́лѣхъ є҆гѡ̀ ѡ҆́крестъ,

¹⁸

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

¹⁸

а҆враа́мꙋ (бы́сть) въ стѧжа́нїе пред̾ сы̑ны хетте́овыми и҆ пред̾ всѣ́ми приходѧ́щими во гра́дъ.

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 си́хъ погребѐ а҆враа́мъ са́ррꙋ женꙋ̀ свою̀ въ пеще́рѣ се́лнѣй сꙋгꙋ́бѣй, ꙗ҆́же є҆́сть проти́вꙋ мамврі́и: сїѧ̀ є҆́сть хеврѡ́нъ въ землѝ ханаа́нстѣй.

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

И҆ оу҆твержде́но є҆́сть село̀ и҆ пеще́ра, ꙗ҆́же бѣ̀ на не́мъ, а҆враа́мꙋ въ стѧжа́нїе гро́ба ѿ сынѡ́въ хетте́овыхъ.
