2 Sara mourut à Kirjath-Arba, qui est Hébron, dans le pays de Canaan; et Abraham vint pour mener deuil sur Sara et pour la pleurer.
3 Abraham se leva de devant son mort, et parla ainsi aux fils de Heth:
4 Je suis étranger et habitant parmi vous; donnez-moi la possession d’un sépulcre chez vous, pour enterrer mon mort et l’ôter de devant moi.
5 Les fils de Heth répondirent à Abraham, en lui disant:
6 Écoute-nous, mon seigneur! Tu es un prince de Dieu au milieu de nous; enterre ton mort dans celui de nos sépulcres que tu choisiras; aucun de nous ne te refusera son sépulcre pour enterrer ton mort.
