1 And Sarah was one hundred and twenty-seven years old; these were the years of the life of Sarah.
2 And Sarah died in Kirjatharba; the same is Hebron in the land of Canaan; and Abraham came to mourn for Sarah and to weep for her.
3 And Abraham stood up from before his dead and spoke unto the sons of Heth, saying,
4 I am a stranger and a sojourner with you; give me a possession of a buryingplace with you, that I may bury my dead out of my sight.
5 And the sons of Heth answered Abraham, saying unto him,
6 Hear us, my lord; thou art a prince of God among us; in the best of our sepulchres bury thy dead; none of us shall withhold from thee his sepulchre so that thou may bury thy dead.
7 And Abraham stood up and bowed himself to the people of the land, even to the sons of Heth.
