'Getting' in the Bible

They had no children because Elizabeth was barren and because both of them were getting old.

Then Zechariah asked the angel, "How can I be sure of this, since I am an old man, and my wife is getting older?"

Keep on giving to everyone who asks you for something, and if anyone takes what is yours, do not insist on getting it back.

We have been condemned justly, because we are getting what we deserve for what we have done, but this man has done nothing wrong."
