`Efron answered Avraham, saying to him,
He spoke to `Efron in the audience of the people of the land, saying, *But if you will, please hear me. I will give the price of the field. Take it from me, and I will bury my dead there.*
*My lord, listen to me. What is a piece of land worth four hundred shekels of silver between me and you? Therefore bury your dead.*
