He had given food to the king while he stayed at Mahanaim, for he was a very rich man. 33 The king said to Barzillai, "You cross over with me, and I will take care of you with me in Jerusalem." 34 But Barzillai said to the king, "How much longer have I to live, that I should go up with the king to Jerusalem? 35 I am now eighty years old. Can I know the difference between good and bad? Can your servant taste what I eat or what I drink? Can I hear the voice of singing men and women any more? Why should your servant be an added problem to my lord the king? 36 Your servant will only cross over the Jordan with the king. Why should the king reward me in this good way? 37 Let your servant return, that I may die in my own city near the grave of my father and mother. But here is your servant Chimham. Let him cross over with my lord the king. And do for him what is good in your eyes." 38 The king answered, "Chimham will cross over with me. And I will do for him what is pleasing to you. I will do for you whatever you ask." 39 All the people crossed over the Jordan, and the king also. Then the king kissed Barzillai and prayed that good would come to him. And Barzillai returned to his own home.
