The Hittites answered Abraham,
Canaan became the father of Sidon his first-born, and Heth,
“I am a stranger and a sojourner among you; give me property among you for a burying place, that I may bury my dead out of my sight.”
“Hear us, my lord; you are a mighty prince among us. Bury your dead in the choicest of our sepulchres; none of us will withhold from you his sepulchre, or hinder you from burying your dead.”
And Abraham rose up from before his dead, and said to the Hittites,
Canaan was the father of Sidon his first-born, and Heth,
but he raises up the needy out of affliction, and makes their families like flocks.
