When the time drew near for David to die, he gave a charge to Solomon his son.

The time came near for David to die. So he gave orders to his son Solomon.

As the time of King David’s death approached, he gave this charge to his son Solomon:

As the time approached for David to die, he ordered his son Solomon,

As David’s time to die drew near, he commanded his son Solomon, saying,

Now the days of David drew near that he should die, and he charged Solomon his son, saying:

Now the days of David drew nigh that he should die; and he charged Solomon his son, saying,

As the time approached for David to die, he instructed his son Solomon,

Now the days of David drew nigh that he should die; and he charged Solomon his son, saying,

When David was close to death, he told Solomon his son:

Now the days of David came near that he should die; and he commanded Solomon his son, saying,

And when the time drew near that Israel must die, he called his son Joseph and said to him,“ If now I have found favor in your sight, put your hand under my thigh and promise to deal kindly and truly with me. Do not bury me in Egypt,

And the Lord said to Moses,“ Behold, the days approach when you must die. Call Joshua and present yourselves in the tent of meeting, that I may commission him.” And Moses and Joshua went and presented themselves in the tent of meeting.

Make him stand before Eleazar the priest and all the congregation, and you shall commission him in their sight.

I charge you in the presence of God, who gives life to all things, and of Christ Jesus, who in his testimony before Pontius Pilate made the good confession,

I think it right, as long as I am in this body, to stir you up by way of reminder,since I know that the putting off of my body will be soon, as our Lord Jesus Christ made clear to me.And I will make every effort so that after my departure you may be able at any time to recall these things.

This is the blessing with which Moses the man of God blessed the people of Israel before his death.

Pay careful attention to yourselves and to all the flock, in which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to care for the church of God, which he obtained with his own blood.I know that after my departure fierce wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock;and from among your own selves will arise men speaking twisted things, to draw away the disciples after them.Therefore be alert, remembering that for three years I did not cease night or day to admonish everyone with tears.

And the Lord commissioned Joshua the son of Nun and said,“ Be strong and courageous, for you shall bring the people of Israel into the land that I swore to give them. I will be with you.”

I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom:

For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure has come.

But charge Joshua, and encourage and strengthen him, for he shall go over at the head of this people, and he shall put them in possession of the land that you shall see.’

This charge I entrust to you, Timothy, my child, in accordance with the prophecies previously made about you, that by them you may wage the good warfare,
