2 Samuel 1:21-23
New King James Version
21 “O (A)mountains of Gilboa,
(B)Let there be no dew nor rain upon you,
Nor fields of offerings.
For the shield of the mighty is [a]cast away there!
The shield of Saul, not (C)anointed with oil.
22 From the blood of the slain,
From the fat of the mighty,
(D)The bow of Jonathan did not turn back,
And the sword of Saul did not return empty.
23 “Saul and Jonathan were beloved and pleasant in their lives,
And in their (E)death they were not divided;
They were swifter than eagles,
They were (F)stronger than lions.
