of the mighty

who shall bless
<01288> (8762)

blessings
<01293>

of the deep
<08415>

that lieth
<07257> (8802)

<0398> (8799)

the prey
<05706>_,

and at night
<06153>

he shall divide
<02505> (8762)

the spoil

spake
<01696> (8765)

unto them, and blessed
<01288> (8762)

them; every
<0834>

one
<0376>

according to his blessing
<01293>

he blessed
<01288> (8765)

them.

unto my people
<05971>_:

bury
<06912> (8798)

me with my fathers
<01>

in the cave
<04631>

that [is] in the field
<07704>

of Ephron
<06085>

the Hittite
<02850>_,

<04631>

that [is] in the field
<07704>

in the land
<0776>

<07069> (8804)

with the field
<07704>

of Ephron
<06085>

the Hittite
<02850>

for a possession

<06912> (8804)

Abraham

his wife

<06912> (8804)

Isaac
<03327>

and Rebekah
<07259>

his wife
<0802>_;

and there I buried

<04735>

of the field

<03290>

had made an end
<03615> (8762)

<0622> (8799)

his feet
<07272>

into the bed
<04296>_,

and yielded up the ghost
<01478> (8799)_,

and was gathered
<0622> (8735)

unto his people
<05971>_.
