Long life » Examples of vigorous » Feebleness in
the almond tree blossoms,
the grasshopper loses its spring,
and the caper berry has no effect;
for man is headed to his eternal home,
and mourners will walk around in the street;
and the strong men stoop,
the women who grind cease because they are few,
and the ones who watch through the windows see dimly,
as my strength fails, do not abandon me.
By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, and he worshiped, leaning on the top of his staff.
Now King David was old and getting on in years. Although they covered him with bedclothes, he could not get warm.
The Lord of Hosts says this: “Old men and women will again sit along the streets of Jerusalem, each with a staff in hand because of advanced age.
