2 Samuel 19:33-38 ▼

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?

36 As a little thing, your servant passes over the Jordan with the king, and why does the king repay me this repayment?

37 Please let your servant turn back again, and I die in my own city, near the burying-place of my father and of my mother—and behold, your servant Chimham, let him pass over with my lord the king, and do to him that which [is] good in your eyes.”

38 And the king says, “Chimham goes over with me, and I do to him that which [is] good in your eyes, indeed, all that you fix on me I do to you.”
