David's Lament for Saul and Jonathan
17
And David 1lamented with this lamentation over Saul and Jonathan his son,
18
and he said ita should be taught to the people of Judah; behold, it is written in 2the Book of Jashar.b He said:
19
"Your glory, O Israel, is slain on your high places! 3How the mighty have fallen!
20
4Tell it not in Gath, 5publish it not in the streets of Ashkelon, 6lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, lest the daughters of 7the uncircumcised exult.
21
8"You mountains of Gilboa, let there be no dew or rain upon you, nor fields of offerings!c For there the shield of the mighty was defiled, the shield of Saul, not 9anointed with oil.
22
"From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the mighty, 10the 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 11swifter than eagles; they were 12stronger than lions.
24
"You daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you luxuriously in scarlet, 13who put ornaments of gold on your apparel.
25
14"How the mighty have fallen in the midst of the battle!"Jonathan lies slain on your high places.
26
I am distressed for you, my brother Jonathan; very pleasant have you been to me; 15your love to me was extraordinary, surpassing the love of women.
27
16"How the mighty have fallen, and the weapons of war perished!"
