01:022:015 And the angel of the lord called unto
Abraham out of heaven
the
second time,
01:022:016 And said, By myself have I sworn, saith
the lord, for because
thou
hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son,
thine
only son:
01:022:017 That in blessing I will bless thee, and
in multiplying I will
multiply
thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand
which
is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the
gate
of his enemies;
01:022:018 And in thy seed shall all the nations of
the earth be blessed;
because
thou hast obeyed my voice.
01:022:019 So Abraham returned unto his young men,
and they rose up and
went
together to Beersheba; and Abraham dwelt at Beersheba.
01:022:020 And it came to pass after these things,
that it was told
Abraham,
saying, Behold, Milcah, she hath also born children
unto
thy brother Nahor;
01:022:021 Huz his firstborn, and Buz his brother,
and Kemuel the father
of
Aram,
01:022:022 And Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel.
01:022:023 And Bethuel begat Rebekah: these eight
Milcah did bear to
Nahor,
Abraham’s brother.
01:022:024 And his concubine, whose name was Reumah,
she bare also Tebah,
and
Gaham, and Thahash, and Maachah.
01:023:001 And Sarah was an hundred and seven and
twenty years old: these
were
the years of the life of Sarah.
01:023:002 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.
01:023:003 And Abraham stood up from before his dead,
and spake unto the
sons
of Heth, saying,
01:023:004 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.
01:023:005 And the children of Heth answered Abraham, saying unto him,
01:023:006 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.
01:023:007 And Abraham stood up, and bowed himself
to the people of the
land,
even to the children of Heth.
01:023:008 And he communed with them, saying, If it
be your mind that I
should
bury my dead out of my sight; hear me, and intreat
for
me
to Ephron the son of Zohar,
01:023:009 That he may give me the cave of Machpelah,
which he hath,
which
is in the end of his field; for as much money as it
is
worth
he shall give it me for a possession of a buryingplace
amongst
you.
