Jeremiah 32:9-11

EasyEnglish Bible

⁹ So I bought the field at Anathoth from my cousin Hanamel. I weighed 17 shekels of silver to pay him for it. ¹⁰ I wrote my name on a piece of paper to show that I had bought the land. Some men watched as I did this, to agree to the sale. I closed the paper with a seal.^[a] Then I gave Hanamel the silver that I had weighed. ¹¹ I took the paper with the seal, and also a copy of it that had no seal. The agreement about the sale of land was written on those pieces of paper.
