2 Samuel 19:38
Source: Septuagint
38Let, I pray thee, thy servant remain, and I will die in my city, by the tomb of my father and of my mother. And, behold, thy servant Chimham shall go over with my lord the king; and do thou to him as it seems good in thine eyes.

36I am this day eighty years old: can I then distinguish between good and evil? Can thy servant taste any longer what I eat or drink? can I any longer hear the voice of singing men or singing women? and wherefore shall thy servant any longer be a burden to my lord the king?
37Thy servant will go a little way over Jordan with the king: and why does the king return me this recompense?
— 2 Samuel 19:38 —
39And the king said, Let Chimham go over with me, and I will do to him what is good in my sight; and whatsoever thou shalt choose at my hand, I will do for thee.
40And all the people went over Jordan, and the king went over; and the king kissed Barzillai, and blessed him; and he returned to his place.
