Hello...I am trying to find the verse in the bible that refers to a

[schmuls]

head of white hair as being blessed or something to that effect. Not sure if it is Old or New Testament. Thanks.

1. Try this ...

2. The closest I can find is Proverbs 16:31

"Gray hair is a crown of glory. It is attained by a life of righteousness."

Does that help?

7. That's a nice verse.

I don't like most of the Bible, but I do agree with the respect shown to elders in that verse and the commandment to honor parents. :)

3. Here's two:

LEV 19:32 Get up from your seats before the white-haired, and give honour to the old, and let the fear of your God be before you: I am the Lord.

Proverbs 16:31; White hair is a crown of glory; Death will come, let the old be found in the way of righteousness and peace: Their age will be their honour and commands respect.

4. ...and if you want a slightly different way to search for Bible/Quran/Book of Mormon verses:

[Waiting For Everyman]

5. Several possibilities (searched on a Hebrew term usually translated "hoary head" by KJV)

It means the same thing as white hair or grey hair though. There are other similar English terms used interchangeable for it sometimes...

Proverbs 16:31 The hoary head is a crown of glory, if it be found in the way of righteousness.

Psalms 71:18 Now also when I am old and grayheaded, O God, forsake me not; until I have shewed thy strength unto this generation, and thy power to every one that is to come.

Psalms 92:14 They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing;

Isaiah 46:4 And even to your old age I am he; and even to hoar hairs will I carry you: I have made, and I will bear; even I will carry, and will deliver.
