2 Samuel 1:21-23
English Standard Version
21 (A)“You mountains of Gilboa,
let there be no dew or rain upon you,
nor fields of offerings![a]
For there the shield of the mighty was defiled,
the shield of Saul, not (B)anointed with oil.
22 “From the blood of the slain,
from the fat of the mighty,
(C)the bow of Jonathan turned not back,
and the sword of Saul returned not empty.
23 “Saul and Jonathan, beloved and lovely!
In life and in death they were not divided;
they were (D)swifter than eagles;
they were (E)stronger than lions.
