The Voice

Hittites: ⁶ Listen, my lord. We recognize you are a powerful prince among us, and God is certainly with you. Bury your dead in the best of our burial places. None of us will deny you any tomb so that you might properly bury your dead.

Abraham (to the Hittites): ⁸ If you are really willing for me to give my dead wife a proper burial, then would you please ask Ephron (Zohar’s son) for me
