Genesis 23:18 in Context — Genesis 23
16 Abraham comprit Éphron; et Abraham pesa à Éphron l’argent qu’il avait dit, en présence des fils de Heth, quatre cents sicles d’argent ayant cours chez le marchand.
17 Le champ d’Éphron à Macpéla, vis-à-vis de Mamré, le champ et la caverne qui y est, et tous les arbres qui sont dans le champ et dans toutes ses limites alentour,
18 devinrent ainsi la propriété d’Abraham, aux yeux des fils de Heth et de tous ceux qui entraient par la porte de sa ville.
19 Après cela, Abraham enterra Sara, sa femme, dans la caverne du champ de Macpéla, vis-à-vis de Mamré, qui est Hébron, dans le pays de Canaan.
20 Le champ et la caverne qui y est demeurèrent à Abraham comme possession sépulcrale, acquise des fils de Heth.
