2 Samuel 19:35 in Context — 2 Samuel 19
33 Le roi dit à Barzillaï: Viens avec moi, je te nourrirai chez moi à Jérusalem.
34 Mais Barzillaï répondit au roi: Combien d’années vivrai-je encore, pour que je monte avec le roi à Jérusalem?
35 Je suis aujourd’hui âgé de quatre-vingts ans. Puis-je connaître ce qui est bon et ce qui est mauvais? Ton serviteur peut-il savourer ce qu’il mange et ce qu’il boit? Puis-je encore entendre la voix des chanteurs et des chanteuses? Et pourquoi ton serviteur serait-il encore à charge à mon seigneur le roi?
36 Ton serviteur ira un peu au-delà du Jourdain avec le roi. Pourquoi, d’ailleurs, le roi m’accorderait-il ce bienfait?
37 Que ton serviteur s’en retourne, et que je meure dans ma ville, près du sépulcre de mon père et de ma mère! Mais voici ton serviteur Kimham, qui passera avec le roi mon seigneur; fais pour lui ce que tu trouveras bon.
