Genesis 49:29-33 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

29. Then Israel gave them a command. He said, “I am about to die. Bury me with my ancestors in the cave in the field of Ephron the Hittite.

30. That cave is in the field of Machpelah east of Mamre. It is in the land of Canaan. Abraham bought that field from Ephron the Hittite for a burying place.

31. Abraham and Sarah his wife are buried there. Isaac and Rebekah his wife are buried there. I buried my wife Leah there.

32. The field and the cave in it were bought from the Hittite people.”

33. After Jacob finished talking to his sons, he lay down. He put his feet back on the bed, took his last breath and died.
