2 Samuel 19:34-36

Darby Translation

³⁴ And Barzillai said to the king, How many are the days of the years of my life, that I should go up with the king to Jerusalem?

³⁵ I am this day eighty years old: can I discern between good and bad? can thy servant taste what I eat and what I drink? can I hear any more the voice of singing men and singing women? and why should thy servant be yet a burden to my lord the king?

³⁶ Thy servant will go a little way over the Jordan with the king; and why should the king recompense it to me with this reward?
