2 Samuel 1:19-22 New English Translation (NET)

19. The beauty of Israel lies slain on your high places!How the mighty have fallen!

20. Don’t report it in Gath,don’t spread the news in the streets of Ashkelon,or the daughters of the Philistines will rejoice,the daughters of the uncircumcised will celebrate!

21. O mountains of Gilboa, may there be no dew or rain on you, nor fields of grain offerings!For it was there that the shield of warriors was defiled;the shield of Saul lies neglected without oil.

22. From the blood of the slain, from the fat of warriors,the bow of Jonathan was not turned away.The sword of Saul never returned empty.
