33. and the king saith unto Barzillai, `Pass thou over with me, and I have sustained thee with me in Jerusalem.'
34. And Barzillai saith unto the king, `How many [are] the days of the years of my life, that I go up with the king to Jerusalem?
35. A son of eighty years I [am] to-day; do I know between good and evil? doth thy servant taste that which I am eating, and that which I drink? do I hearken any more to the voice of singers and songstresses? and why is thy servant any more for a burden unto my lord the king?
36. As a little thing, thy servant doth pass over the Jordan with the king, and why doth the king recompense me this recompense?
37. Let, I pray thee, thy servant turn back again, and I die in mine own city, near the burying-place of my father and of my mother, --and lo, thy servant Chimham, let him pass over with my lord the king, and do thou to him that which [is] good in thine eyes.'
38. And the king saith, `With me doth Chimham go over, and I do to him that which [is] good in thine eyes, yea, all that thou dost fix on me I do to thee.'
