¹⁷ So Ephron’s field^(A) at Machpelah near Mamre—the field with its cave and all the trees anywhere within the boundaries of the field—became ¹⁸ Abraham’s possession in the sight of all the Hethites who came to the gate of his city. ¹⁹ After this, Abraham buried his wife Sarah in the cave of the field at Machpelah near Mamre (that is, Hebron) in the land of Canaan. ²⁰ The field with its cave passed from the Hethites to Abraham^(B) as burial property.

⁹ His sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the cave of Machpelah^(A) near Mamre, in the field of Ephron son of Zohar the Hethite. ¹⁰ This was the field that Abraham bought from the Hethites.^(B) Abraham was buried there with his wife Sarah.

²⁹ He took his last breath and died, and was gathered to his people,^(A) old and full of days. His sons Esau and Jacob buried him.

²⁹ Then he commanded them, “I am about to be gathered to my people.^(A) Bury me with my ancestors^(B) in the cave in the field of Ephron the Hethite.^{(C) 30} The cave is in the field of Machpelah near Mamre, in the land of Canaan. This is the field Abraham purchased from Ephron the Hethite as burial property.^{(D) 31} Abraham and his wife Sarah are buried there,^(E) Isaac and his wife Rebekah are buried there,^(F) and I buried Leah there.^{(G) 32} The field and the cave in it were purchased from the Hethites.”

⁵ my father made me take an oath,^(A) saying, ‘I am about to die. You must bury me there in the tomb that I made for myself in the land of Canaan.’^(B) Now let me go and bury my father. Then I will return.”
