he died:
David at his death had every thing that his heart could wish: "he died in a good old age, full of days, riches, and honour;" having gained more renown than any crowned head ever did. "David," says Dr. Delaney, "was a true believer, a zealous adorer of God, teacher of His law and worship, and inspirer of His praise; a glorious example, a perpetual and inexhaustible fountain of true piety; a consummate and unrivalled hero; a skilful and successful captain; a steady patriot; a wise ruler; a faithful, generous, and magnanimous friend; and what is yet rarer, a no less generous and magnanimous enemy; a true penitent, a divine musician, a sublime poet, and an inspired prophet. By birth a peasant, by merit a prince! In youth a hero, in manhood a monarch, and in age a saint."

a good old age:
"And thou¹ shalt goª ° to¹ thy fathersª in peace;ª thou shalt be buriedª ° in a goodª old age.ª" {Gen 15:15} + "Then Abrahamª gave up the ghost,ª ° and diedª ° in a goodª old age,ª an old man,ª and fullª [of years]; and was gatheredª ° to¹ his people.ª" {Gen 25:8} + "Thou shalt comeª ° to¹ [thy] graveª in a full age,ª like as a shock of cornª cometh inª ° in his season.ª" {Job 5:26} + "The hoary¹ head² [is] a crownª of glory,ª [if] it be foundª ° in the wayª of righteousness.ª" {Prv 16:31} + "Forª ² David,ª after he¹ had servedª ° his ownª generationª by the¹ willª of God,ª fell on sleep,ª ° andª was laidª ° untoª his² ¹ fathers,ª andª sawª ° corruption:ª" {Act 13:36}

full of days:
"So when Davidª was oldª ° and fullª ° of days,ª he made¹ ¹ Solomonª his sonª king² ° over¹ Israel.ª" {1Ch 23:1} + "And Isaacª gave up the ghost,ª ° and died,ª ° and was gatheredª ° unto¹ his people,ª [being] oldª and fullª of days:ª and his sonsª Esauª and Jacobª buriedª ° him." {Gen 35:29} + "Thou shalt comeª ° to¹ [thy] graveª in a full age,ª like as a shock of cornª cometh inª ° in his season.ª" {Job 5:26}
