Genesis 23:17-20
New International Version
17 So Ephron’s field in Machpelah(A) near Mamre(B)—both the field and the cave in it, and all the trees within the borders of the field—was deeded 18 to Abraham as his property(C) in the presence of all the Hittites(D) who had come to the gate(E) of the city. 19 Afterward Abraham buried his wife Sarah in the cave in the field of Machpelah(F) near Mamre (which is at Hebron(G)) in the land of Canaan.(H) 20 So the field and the cave in it were deeded(I) to Abraham by the Hittites as a burial site.(J)
Genesis 23:17-20
King James Version
17 And the field of Ephron which was in Machpelah, which was before Mamre, the field, and the cave which was therein, and all the trees that were in the field, that were in all the borders round about, were made sure
18 Unto Abraham for a possession in the presence of the children of Heth, before all that went in at the gate of his city.
19 And after this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field of Machpelah before Mamre: the same is Hebron in the land of Canaan.
20 And the field, and the cave that is therein, were made sure unto Abraham for a possession of a buryingplace by the sons of Heth.
