2 Samuel 19:34-36

Tree of Life Version

³⁴ The king said to Barzillai, “Cross over with me, and I will provide for you with me in Jerusalem.” ³⁵ But Barzillai said to the king, “How many years are left of my life that I should go up with the king to Jerusalem? ³⁶ I am now 80 years old. Can I distinguish between good and bad? Can your servant taste what I eat or what I drink? Can I listen any more to the voice of singing men and women? Why then should your servant be yet a burden to my lord the king?
