2 Samuel 15:33; 2 Samuel 19:35

33 Unto whom David said, If thou passest on with me, then thou shalt be a burden unto me:

35 I am this day fourscore years old: and can I discern between good and evil? can thy servant taste what I eat or what I drink? can I hear any more the voice of singing men and singing women? wherefore then should thy servant be yet a burden unto my lord the king?
