1 Sara too natun esa rua nulu hitu ma, ana mate. Leleꞌ ana mate, Abraham se leo sia kambo Kiryat-Arba (naeni Hebron), sia rae Kanaꞌan. Abraham nggae ei-ei ma beꞌe sao na mamate na.
And the life of Sarrha was an hundred and twenty-seven years.
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.
3 Basa ma, ana neu nandaa no atahori Het ra, de olaꞌ nae,
And Abraam stood up from before his dead; and Abraam spoke to the sons of Chet, saying,
4 “Au ia numban sia hei taladꞌa mara. Au nda ma raeꞌ fo uꞌoi sao ngga sa. Mete ma hei nau, naa fee au hasa hei rae ma mbei, fo au uꞌoi e sia naa.”
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.
5 Ara rataa rae,
And the sons of Chet answered to Abraam, saying, Not so, Sir,
6 “Taꞌo ia amaꞌ! Mia doo na nema, hai tao amaꞌ onaꞌ atahori lasiꞌ esa fo hai fee hadat. Dadꞌi amaꞌ hii neuꞌ ena, rae bee malole lenaꞌ, nandaa no amaꞌ hihii na. Hai simbo no maloleꞌ, esa o nda ai saꞌ boe.”
but hear us; you are in the midst of us a king from God; bury your dead in our choice sepulchres, for not one of us will by any means withhold his sepulchre from you, so that you should not bury your dead there.
7 Boe ma Abraham o beꞌutee fee hadat neu tenu raeꞌ ra, atahori Het ra.
And Abraam rose up and did obeisance to the people of the land, to the sons of Chet.
8 Ana nafadꞌe nae, “Mete ma hei simbo oꞌola ngga faꞌ ra, naa, au oꞌe tulun hei olaꞌ mo toulasi Sohar ana mone na, Efron.
And Abraam spoke to them, saying, If you have it in your mind that I should bury my dead out of my sight, listen to me, and speak for me to Ephron the son Saar.
9 Moꞌe, mete ma ana nau seo luat na, naran Makpela, neu au, naa, hasa ala e. Luat naa, sia osi na suu na. Ana noꞌe feli na sudꞌiꞌ a baꞌu saa o, au bae. Au nau bae etu feli na sia basa hei mata mara, fo rae naa dadꞌi au ena ngga. Au ae tao rae naa, dadꞌi hai mamana rates ma.”
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.
10 Leleꞌ naa, Efron o endoꞌ no atahori Het ra boe, de ana rena Abraham oꞌola na. Ana nambariiꞌ de nataa Abraham sia basa atahori lasiꞌ ra mata nara nae,
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,
11 “Afiꞌ taꞌo naa, amaꞌ. Te taꞌo ia. Au fee osi naa no luat Makpela neu amaꞌ. Amaꞌ muu muꞌoi sao ma sia naa. Au fee rae naa neu amaꞌ sia atahori nggara mata nara. Naa fo, basa se sakasii!”
Attend to me, my lord, and hear me, I give to you the field and the cave which is in it; I have given it you before all my country men; bury your dead.
12 Boe ma Abraham beꞌutee seluꞌ sia atahori Het ra mata nara.
And Abraam did obeisance before the people of the land.
13 Ana olaꞌ no Efron nae, “Naa o malole boe, te rena au dei. Au ae hasa etu rae naa, fo uꞌoi atahori nggara sia naa.”
And he said in the ears of Ephron before the people of the land, Since you are on my side, hear me; take the price of the field from me, and I will bury my dead there.
14 Efron nataa nae, “Rae naa feli na akaꞌ a doi fulaꞌ natun haa. Soa saa ruꞌa nggita taloe neu-nema akaꞌ doiꞌ mbei anaꞌ naa? Amaꞌ muꞌoi sao ma sia naa leo.”
But Ephron answered Abraam, saying,
Nay, my lord, I have heard indeed, the land [is worth] four hundred silver didrachmas, but what can this be between me and you? nay, do you bury your dead.
16 Abraham naꞌaheiꞌ rae a feli na, tungga Efron oꞌola na. Dadꞌi ana reken doi fulaꞌ natun haa, de bae neu Efron mia basa atahori Het ra mata na, fo ara dadꞌi sakasii.
And Abraam listened to Ephron, and Abraam rendered to Ephron the money, which he mentioned in the ears of the sons of Chet, four hundred didrachmas of silver approved with merchants.
17 No taꞌo naa, Abraham hambu Efron rae na, dadꞌi eni ena na. Rae naa sia Makpela, deka no Mamre (naeni Hebron). Ana hasa etu rae naa no osi ma luat na, ma basa hau huuꞌ ra. Basa lasi-lasiꞌ atahori Het ra dadꞌi sakasii rae no isi na, Abraham ena na. Basa naa de, Abraham neu naꞌoi sao na sia luat naa, sia rae Kanaꞌan.
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 in its borders round about, were made sure
to Abraam for a possession, before the sons of Chet, and all that entered into the city.
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.
20 No taꞌo naa, osi no luat naa fo feꞌesaꞌan na, atahori Het ra rae na, ia naa, dadꞌi Abraham ena na. De ana tao dadꞌi mamana rates.
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.
