2 Samuel 19:32-37

32Now BarzillaiH1271 was a very aged man, evenH853 fourscore years old: and he had provided the kingH4428 with sustenance whileH3383 he layH7971 at Mahanaim; for he was a very great man.

33And the kingH4428 said unto BarzillaiH1271, Come thou over with meH1121, and I will sustainH3557 thee with meH1121 in Jerusalem.

34And BarzillaiH1271 saidH559 unto the kingH4428, How many are the days of the years of my life, that I should goH5674 upH853 with the kingH4428 unto JerusalemH3389?

35I am this dayH3117 fourscore yearsH3117 old: canH4100 I discern between good and bad? canH4100 thy servant taste whatH4100 I eat or whatH4100 I drink? canH4100 I hear anyH5927 moreH3588 the voice of singing menH8147 and singing women? wherefore then should thy servant be yet a burdenH413 unto my lord the kingH4428?

36Thy servantH5650 would but justH834 goH1961 over Jordan with the kingH4428: and whyH4100 should the kingH4428 recompense it meH413 with suchH834 a reward?

37Let thy servantH5650, I pray thee, turnH5674 back again, that I may die in mine own city, by the grave of my father and my mother. But behold, thy servantH5650 Chimham; let him goH5674 over with my lord the kingH4428; and doH4100 to him whatH4100 shall seem good unto thee.
