Genesis 23:16-18
Lexham English Bible
16 Then Abraham listened to Ephron, and Abraham weighed for Ephron the silver that he had named[a] in the hearing of the Hittites:[b] four hundred shekels of silver at the merchants’ current rate.[c] 17 So the field of Ephron which was in the Machpelah, which was near Mamre—the field and the cave which was in it, with all the trees that were in the field, which were within all its surrounding boundaries—passed[d] 18 to Abraham as a property in the presence of the Hittites,[e] with respect to all who were entering the gate of his city.
