1. And Sarah was an hundred and seven and twenty shanah old: these were the shnei chayyai Sarah.
2. And Sarah died in Kiryat- Arba; the same is Chevron in eretz Kena'an: and Avraham came to mourn for Sarah, and to weep for her.
3. And Avraham stood up from before his dead, and spoke unto the bnei Chet, saying,
4. I am a ger and a sojourner with you: give me an achuzzah (possession) of a kever with you, that I may bury my dead out of my sight.
5. And the bnei Chet answered Avraham, saying unto him,
6. Hear us, adoni: thou art a nasi Elohim among us; in the choice of kevareinu bury thy dead; none of us shall withhold from thee his kever, that thou mayest bury thy dead.
7. And Avraham stood up, and bowed himself to the am ha'aretz, even to the bnei Chet.
