And the water out of the skin was spent, - so she cant the child under one of the shrubs;

and went and sat her down over against him at a distance like as of such as draw the bow, for she said Let me not look upon the death of the child, - So she sat down over against him, and the boy lifted up his voice, and wept

So Abraham boweth himself down, before the people of the land:

So was con-firmed the field of Ephron, which is in Machpelah, which is before Mamre, - the field and the cave which is therein, and all the timber which was in the field, which was in all the boundary thereof round about,
