I weighed out 17 shekels[a] of silver for him. 10 I signed the deed and had a copy of the deed sealed up.[b] I got some men to witness what I had done, and I weighed out the silver on the scales. 11 Then I took the sealed copy of the deed, which contained the demands and limits of my purchase, and the copy that was not sealed.
