And Abraham stood up from before his dead, and spake unto the sons of Heth, saying,

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.

Hear us, my lord: thou {art} a mighty prince among us: in the choice of our sepulchres bury thy dead; none of us shall withhold from thee his sepulchre, but that thou mayest bury thy dead. {a mighty...: Heb. a prince of God}

And Abraham stood up, and bowed himself to the people of the land, {even} to the children of Heth.
