live to the age of Methuselah; live to a ripe old ageЖил был пискарь. И отец, и мать у него были умные; помаленьку да полегоньку аридовы веки в реке прожили, и ни в уху, ни к щуке в хайло не попали.

Now, this Minnow's parents were known for their sense; little by little, and bit by bit they had lived to a ripe old age and never got cooked for fish soup or snapped up by pike.
