1 Samuel 12:2 And now, behold, the king walks before you: and I am old and gray headed; and, behold, my sons are with you… A good old age has been cynically defined as "an age at which a man is good for nothing;" but it is our own fault if we are good for nothing in old age. The old can help the rising generation by sympathy and advice, and do much to prevent them from rising in the wrong direction. (Quiver.) Parallel Verses KJV: And now, behold, the king walketh before you: and I am old and grayheaded; and, behold, my sons are with you: and I have walked before you from my childhood unto this day. |
