“Now king David was old and stricken in years; and they covered him with clothes, but he gat no heat.”
— I Kings 1:1, King James Version
“Now king David was old and stricken in years; and they covered him with clothes, but he gat no heat.”
“And king David was old [and] advanced in age; and they covered him with clothes, but he obtained no warmth.”
“Now king David was old, and advanced in years: and when he was covered with clothes he was not warm.”
“Now King David was old and far on in years; and though they put covers over him, his body was cold.”
“Now king David was old and stricken in years; and they covered him with clothes, but he gat no heat.”
Now king David was old and stricken in years; and they covered him with clothes, but he gat no heat.
Wherefore his servants said unto him, Let there be sought for my lord the king a young virgin: and let her stand before the king, and let her cherish him, and let her lie in thy bosom, that my lord the king may get heat.
So they sought for a fair damsel throughout all the coasts of Israel, and found Abishag a Shunammite, and brought her to the king.
And the damsel was very fair, and cherished the king, and ministered to him: but the king knew her not.
