Let thy servant, I pray thee, turn back again, that I may die in mine own city, and be buried by the grave of my father and of my mother. But behold thy servant Chimham; let him go over with my lord the king; and do to him what shall seem good unto thee.
Por favor, permite que tu siervo regrese a casa para morir en mi propia ciudad y ser sepultado junto a mi padre y mi madre. Pero aquí está mi siervo Quimam, deja que él vaya contigo, mi señor el rey, y haz por él lo que te parezca bien.
El siervo pide regresar a casa para morir en su tierra natal, pero ofrece que su siervo Quimam acompañe al rey en su lugar.

Barzillai, an elderly man from Gilead who had provided food and aid to David and his followers during their exile, is now being honored by David with an invitation to join him in the capital. However, Barzillai declines, expressing his desire to spend his final days in his hometown and be buried with his family, while recommending his servant Chimham to take his place.
