2 Samuel 19:34-36

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³⁴ And Berzellai 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 fourscore years old, are my senses quick to discern sweet and bitter? or can meat or drink delight thy servant? or can I hear any more the voice of singing men and singing women? why should thy servant be a burden to my lord, the king?

³⁶ I thy servant will go on a little way from the Jordan with thee: I need not this recompense.
