2 Samuel 19:35-37
Living Bible
35 I am eighty years old today, and life has lost its excitement.[a] Food and wine are no longer tasty, and entertainment is not much fun; I would only be a burden to my lord the king. 36 Just to go across the river with you is all the honor I need! 37 Then let me return again to die in my own city, where my father and mother are buried. But here is Chimham.[b] Let him go with you and receive whatever good things you want to give him.”
