OET (OET-LV) am_a_sojourner and_a_resident_alien I with_you(pl) give to_me a_possession_of a_burial_site with_you(pl) so_that_I_may_bury my_of_dead from_before_me_of.

OET (OET-RV) “I’m a foreigner and just staying among you. Give me property for a burial place on your land so that I can bury my dead wife.”

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

אָנֹכִ֖י

I

The leaders of the city already knew that Abraham was a foreigner, so make sure your translation of this sentence does not sound like he is telling them something that they did not know. Alternate translation: [I am coming to you as] or [Since I am]

גֵּר־וְ⁠תוֹשָׁ֥ב

alien and,a_resident_alien

See how you translated foreigner in Gen 15:13. Alternate translation: [a outsider who has settled] or [a outsider who is living]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

עִמָּ⁠כֶ֑ם

with,you(pl)

It is implied by Abraham and understood by the Hittites that Abraham’s status as a foreigner means he owns no property. Consider whether or not to make this implied information explicit in your translation. Alternate translation: [among you and I have no land of my own] or [in your land and I do not own any property here]

Note 3 topic: writing-politeness

תְּנ֨וּ לִ֤⁠י

give to=me

Make sure that the way you translate this phrase sounds polite, not rude or demanding. Alternate translation: [Please give me] or [Please let me buy]

אֲחֻזַּת־קֶ֨בֶר֙ עִמָּ⁠כֶ֔ם

property_of burial_site with,you(pl)

Alternate translation: [some land among you] or [some of your property]

וְ⁠אֶקְבְּרָ֥ה מֵתִ֖⁠י מִ⁠לְּ⁠פָנָֽ⁠י

so,that_I_may_bury my_of,dead from,before,me_of,

Translate this clause in a way that shows respect for the person who has died. Alternate translation: [so I have a place to take my dead wife and bury her] or [where I can bury the body of my wife who has died] or [so that I can give my deceased wife a proper burial]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

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.
