* "
And I bought the field at An '
athoth from Han '
amel my cousin ,
and weighed out the money to him ,
seventeen shekels of silver .
*
I signed the deed ,
sealed it ,
got witnesses ,
and weighed the money on scales .
*
Then I took the sealed deed of purchase ,
containing the terms and conditions ,
and the open copy ;
*
and I gave the deed of purchase to Baruch the son of Neri '
ah son of Mahsei '
ah ,
in the presence of Han '
amel my cousin ,
in the presence of the witnesses who signed the deed of purchase ,
and in the presence of all the Jews who were sitting in the court of the guard .
*
I charged Baruch in their presence ,
saying ,
* `
Thus says the LORD of hosts ,
the God of Israel :
Take these deeds ,
both this sealed deed of purchase and this open deed ,
and put them in an earthenware vessel ,
that they may last for a long time .
