‏ Genesis 23:7-9

v. 7-9: Abraham thanked them politely and asked specifically for the cave of Machpelah, owned by Ephron, at the end of his field (Genesis 23:7-9 a). He wanted to pay its full price, not just borrow it or accept it as a gift. This shows it is right to get what we need in a fair and honest way.
