My lord, hearken unto me: the land is worth four hundred shekels of silver; what is that betwixt me and thee? bury therefore thy dead.

Domine mi, audi me : terra, quam postulas, quadringentis siclis argenti valet : istud est pretium inter me et te : sed quantum est hoc ? sepeli mortuum tuum.

Οὐχί, κύριε, ἀκήκοα γάρ· τετρακοσίων διδράχμων ἀργυρίου· ἀνὰ μέσον ἐμοῦ καὶ σοῦ τί ἂν εἴη τοῦτο; σὺ δὲ τὸν νεκρόν σου θάψον.
LXX
My lord, hearken unto me: a piece of land worth four hundred shekels of silver, what is that betwixt me and thee? bury therefore thy dead.
