2 Samuel 1:17-27

And David
<01732>
lamented
<06969> (8787)
with this lamentation
<07015>
over Saul
<07586>
and over Jonathan
<03083>
his son
<01121>_:
(Also he bade
<0559> (8799)
them teach
<03925> (8763)
the children
<01121>
of Judah
<03063>
[the use of] the bow
<07198>_:
behold, [it is] written
<03789> (8803)
in the book
<05612>
of Jasher
<03477>.)
{of Jasher: or, of the upright}
The beauty
<06643>
of Israel
<03478>
is slain
<02491>
upon thy high places
<01116>_:
how are the mighty
<01368>
fallen
<05307> (8804)_!
Tell
<05046> (8686)
[it] not in Gath
<01661>_,
publish
<01319> (8762)
[it] not in the streets
<02351>
of Askelon
<0831>_;
lest the daughters
<01323>
of the Philistines
<06430>
rejoice
<08055> (8799)_,
lest the daughters
<01323>
of the uncircumcised
<06189>
triumph
<05937> (8799)_.
Ye mountains
<02022>
of Gilboa
<01533>_,
[let there be] no dew
<02919>_,
neither [let there be] rain
<04306>_,
upon you, nor fields
<07704>
of offerings
<08641>_:
for there the shield
<04043>
of the mighty
<01368>
is vilely cast away
<01602> (8738)_,
the shield
<04043>
of Saul
<07586>_,
[as though he had] not [been] anointed
<04899>
with oil
<08081>_.
From the blood
<01818>
of the slain
<02491>_,
from the fat
<02459>
of the mighty
<01368>_,
the bow
<07198>
of Jonathan
<03083>
turned
<07734> (8738)
not back
<0268>_,
and the sword
<02719>
of Saul
<07586>
returned
<07725> (8799)
not empty
<07387>_.
Saul
<07586>
and Jonathan
<03083>
[were] lovely
<0157> (8737)
and pleasant
<05273>
in their lives
<02416>_,
and in their death
<04194>
they were not divided
<06504> (8738)_:
they were swifter
<07043> (8804)
than eagles
<05404>_,
they were stronger
<01396> (8804)
than lions
<0738>_.
{pleasant: or, sweet}
Ye daughters
<01323>
of Israel
<03478>_,
weep over
<01058> (8798)
Saul
<07586>_,
who clothed
<03847> (8688)
you in scarlet
<08144>_,
with [other] delights
<05730>_,
who put
<05927> (8688)
on ornaments
<05716>
of gold
<02091>
upon your apparel
<03830>_.
How are the mighty
<01368>
fallen
<05307> (8804)
in the midst
<08432>
of the battle
<04421>_!
O Jonathan
<03083>_,
[thou wast] slain
<02491>
in thine high places
<01116>_.
I am distressed
<06887> (8804)
for thee, my brother
<0251>
Jonathan
<03083>_:
very
<03966>
pleasant
<05276> (8804)
hast thou been unto me: thy love
<0160>
to me was wonderful
<06381> (8738)_,
passing the love
<0160>
of women
<0802>_.
How are the mighty
<01368>
fallen
<05307> (8804)_,
and the weapons
<03627>
of war
<04421>
perished
<06> (8799)_!
