2 Samuel 1:19-24

19Thy glory, O IsraelH3478, is slainH2491 upon thy highH1116 placesH1116!HowH349 are the mightyH1368 fallenH5307!20TellH5046 it not in GathH1661,Publish it not in the streetsH2351 of AshkelonH831;LestH6435 the daughtersH1323 of the PhilistinesH6430 rejoiceH8055,LestH6435 the daughtersH1323 of the uncircumcisedH6189 triumph.21Ye mountainsH2022 of GilboaH1533,Let there be no dewH2919 nor rainH4306 upon you, neither fieldsH7704 of offerings:For there the shieldH4043 of the mightyH1368 was vilely cast away,The shieldH4043 of SaulH7586, not anointedH4899 with oilH8081.22From the bloodH1818 of the slainH2491, from the fatH2459 of the mightyH1368,The bowH7198 of JonathanH3083 turnedH7725 not backH7725,And the swordH2719 of SaulH7586 returnedH7725 not emptyH7387.23SaulH7586 and JonathanH3083 were lovely and pleasantH5273 in their livesH2416,And in their deathH4194 they were not divided:They were swifter than eaglesH5404,They were strongerH1396 than lionsH738.24Ye daughtersH1323 of IsraelH3478, weepH1058 over SaulH7586,Who clothedH3847 you in scarletH8144 delicately,Who putH3847 ornamentsH5716 of goldH2091 upon your apparel.
