32 and Barzillai [is] very aged, a son of eighty years, and he has sustained the king in his abiding in Mahanaim, for he [is] a very great man; 33 and the king says to Barzillai, “Pass over with me, and I have sustained you in Jerusalem with me.” 34 And Barzillai says to the king, “How many [are] the days of the years of my life, that I go up with the king to Jerusalem? 35 I [am] a son of eighty years today; do I know between good and evil? Does your servant taste that which I am eating, and that which I drink? Do I listen anymore to the voice of male and female singers? And why is your servant for a burden to my lord the king anymore? 2 Samuel 19:32-35, Literal Standard Version. Copyright © 2020 Covenant Press.
