1 А поживе Сара сто и двадесет и седам година; то су године века Сариног;
1 Sarah lived one hundred twenty-seven years. This was the length of Sarah’s life.
2 и умре Сара у Киријат-Арви, а то је Хеврон, у земљи хананској. И дође Аврам да ожали Сару и оплаче.
2 Sarah died in Kiriath Arba (also called Hebron), in the land of Canaan. Abraham came to mourn for Sarah, and to weep for her.
3 А кад уста Аврам од мртваца свог, рече синовима Хетовим говорећи:
3 Abraham rose up from before his dead and spoke to the children of Heth, saying,
4 Странац сам и дошљак код вас; дајте ми да имам гроб код вас да погребем мртваца свог испред очију својих.
4 “I am a stranger and a foreigner living with you. Give me a possession of a burying-place with you, that I may bury my dead out of my sight.”
5 А синови Хетови одговорише Авраму говорећи му:
5 The children of Heth answered Abraham, saying to him,
6 Чуј нас, господару; ти си кнез од Бога међу нама; у најбољем гробу нашем погреби мртваца свог; нико између нас неће ти затворити гроб свој да не погребеш мртваца свог.
6 “Hear us, my lord. You are a prince of God among us. Bury your dead in the best of our tombs. None of us will withhold from you his tomb. Bury your dead.”
7 Тада уста Аврам и поклони се народу земље оне, синовима Хетовим;
7 Abraham rose up, and bowed himself to the people of the land, to the children of Heth.
8 и рече им говорећи: Ако хоћете да погребем мртваца свог испред очију својих, послушајте ме, и говорите за мене Ефрону сину Саровом,
8 He talked with them, saying, “If you agree that I should bury my dead out of my sight, hear me, and entreat for me to Ephron the son of Zohar,
9 нека ми да пећину у Макпели, која је накрај њиве његове; за новце нека ми је да међу вама колико вреди, да имам гроб.
9 that he may sell me the cave of Machpelah, which he has, which is in the end of his field. For the full price let him sell it to me among you as a possession for a burial place.”
10 А Ефрон сеђаше усред синова Хетових. Па рече Ефрон Хетејин Авраму пред синовима Хетовим, који слушаху, пред свим који улажаху на врата града његовог, говорећи:
10 Now Ephron was sitting in the middle of the children of Heth. Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham in the hearing of the children of Heth, even of all who went in at the gate of his city, saying,
11 Не, господару; чуј ме: поклањам ти њиву, и пећину код ње поклањам ти: пред синовима народа свог поклањам ти је, погреби мртваца свог.
11 “No, my lord, hear me. I give you the field, and I give you the cave that is in it. In the presence of the children of my people I give it to you. Bury your dead.”
12 А Аврам се поклони народу земље оне,
12 Abraham bowed himself down before the people of the land.
13 и рече Ефрону пред народом земље оне говорећи: Ако си вољан чуј ме; да ти дам шта вреди њива, узми од мене, па ћу онда погрепсти мртваца свог онде.
13 He spoke to Ephron in the audience of the people of the land, saying, “But if you will, please hear me. I will give the price of the field. Take it from me, and I will bury my dead there.”
14 А Ефрон одговори Авраму говорећи му:
14 Ephron answered Abraham, saying to him,
15 Господару, чуј ме; земља вреди четири стотине сикала сребра између мене и тебе; шта је то? Само ти погреби мртваца свог.
15 “My lord, listen to me. What is a piece of land worth four hundred shekels of silver between me and you? Therefore bury your dead.”
16 А Аврам чувши Ефрона измери му сребро, које рече пред синовима Хетовим, четири стотине сикала сребра, како су ишли међу трговцима.
16 Abraham listened to Ephron. Abraham weighed to Ephron the silver which he had named in the hearing of the children of Heth, four hundred shekels of silver, according to the current merchants’ standard.
17 И њива Ефронова у Макпели према Мамрији, њива с пећином која је на њој, и сва дрвета на њиви и по међи њеној унаоколо,
17 So the field of Ephron, which was in Machpelah, which was before Mamre, the field, the cave which was in it, and all the trees that were in the field, that were in all of its borders, were deeded
18 поста Аврамова пред синовима Хетовим, пред свима који улазе на врата града оног.
18 to Abraham for a possession in the presence of the children of Heth, before all who went in at the gate of his city.
19 Потом погребе Аврам Сару жену своју у пећини на њиви Макпели према Мамрији, а то је Хеврон, у земљи хананској.
19 After this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field of Machpelah before Mamre (that is, Hebron), in the land of Canaan.
20 И потврдише синови Хетови њиву и пећину на њој Авраму да има гроб.
20 The field, and the cave that is in it, were deeded to Abraham by the children of Heth as a possession for a burial place.
