2 Samuel 19:32-39
32Now BarzillaiH1271 was veryH3966 oldH2204, being eightyH8084 yearsH8141 oldH1121; and he had 12sustainedH3557 the kingH4428 while he stayedH7871 at MahanaimH4266, for he was a veryH3966 greatH1419 manH376. 33The kingH4428 saidH559 to BarzillaiH1271, “You crossH5674 overH5674 with me and I will 3sustainH3557 you in JerusalemH3389 with me.” 34But BarzillaiH1271 saidH559 to the kingH4428, “4HowH4100 longH4100 5have I yet to liveH2425, that I should goH5927 up with the kingH4428 to JerusalemH3389? 35I am 6nowH3117 7eightyH8084 yearsH8141 oldH1121. Can I distinguishH3045 betweenH996 goodH2896 and badH7451? OrH518 can your servantH5650 tasteH2938 whatH834 I eatH398 or whatH834 I drinkH8354? OrH518 can I hearH8085 anymoreH5750 8the voiceH6963 of singingH7891 men and women? 9WhyH4100 then should your servantH5650 be an addedH5750 burdenH4853 to my lordH113 the kingH4428? 36Your servantH5650 would merelyH4592 crossH5674 overH5674 the JordanH3383 with the kingH4428. WhyH4100 should the kingH4428 compensateH1580 me with thisH2088 rewardH1578? 37PleaseH4994 let your servantH5650 returnH7725, that I may dieH4191 in my own cityH5892 nearH5973 the graveH6913 of my fatherH1 and my motherH517. However, hereH2009 is your servantH5650 10ChimhamH3643, let him crossH5674 overH5674 with my lordH113 the kingH4428, and doH6213 for him whatH834 is goodH2895 in your sightH5869.” 38The kingH4428 answeredH559, “ChimhamH3643 shall crossH5674 overH5674 with me, and I will doH6213 for him whatH2896 is goodH2896 in your sightH5869; and whateverH3605H834 you 11requireH977 of me, I will doH6213 for you.” 39AllH3605 the peopleH5971 crossedH5674 overH5674 the JordanH3383 and the kingH4428 crossedH5674 too. The kingH4428 then 12kissedH5401 BarzillaiH1271 and blessedH1288 him, and he returnedH7725 to his placeH4725.
