OET (OET-LV) And_he/it_rose_up the_field and_the_cave which in/on/over_him/it to_ʼAⱱrāhām as_property of_a_burial_site by the_people of_Heth.
OET (OET-RV) So the field was deeded as property to Abraham by Het’s sons, including the cave in it for a burial place.

Verse 20 is a concluding summary of chapter 23 and repeats parts of verses 17-18. Make sure that the way you translate this does not sound like Abraham bought another property from the Hittites. Alternate translation: “So that is how that field, including the cave that was in the field, were legally sold to Abraham” or “So in that way, the field of Ephron, including …”
לַאֲחֻזַּת קָ֑בֶר מֵאֵ֖ת בְּנֵי חֵֽת
as,property burial by, sons_of Het
Consider again how you translated a burial place in verses 4, 9, and 20, and how you translated the sons of Heth in verses 3, 5, 7, 10, 16, 18, and 20. Alternate translation: “by the Hittites as a burial site.”
23:1-20 When Sarah . . . died, Abraham acquired a parcel of land for a burial place. This transaction was the first sign that a permanent transition had taken place, as people were normally buried in their ancestral homeland (cp. 49:29–50:13). In burying Sarah, Abraham detached from his just-mentioned ancestral home (where his relatives still lived, 22:20-24); his future would be in Canaan, where his descendants would realize the promise.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
