To bring down someone's grew hairs in sorrow to the grave
He caused him great sorrow before his death in the twilight of his days. He brought upon him afflictions that weighed heavily on his life.
("And when he saw that the boy was not there, he died; and your servants took the return of your servant, and we died in sorrow for asking" - at the beginning of the verse)

גָּרַם לוֹ לְצַעַר רַב לִפְנֵי מוֹתוֹ בַּעֲרֹב יָמָיו. הֵבִיא עָלָיו צָרוֹת שֶׁהִכְבִּידוּ מְאוֹד עַל חַיָּיו.
