My lord, hearken unto me: the land [is worth] four hundred shekels of silver; what [is] that betwixt [between] me and thee? bury therefore thy dead.
Geneva Bible - My lord, hearken unto me; the land is worth four hundred (e) shekels of silver, what is that between me and thee? Bury therefore thy dead.
(e) The common shekel is about 20 pence, so then 400 shekels amount to 33 pounds, 6 shillings and 8
pence after 5 shillings sterling the ounce.
