2 Samuel 1:21-23

New Catholic Bible

²¹ “You mountains of Gilboa,
    may no dew or rain fall upon you,
    and may your fields not bring forth grain.
For there the shields of the warriors were tarnished,
    and the shield of Saul is no longer anointed with oil.
²² “From the blood of the slain,
    from the flesh of the valiant,
The bow of Jonathan did not turn back,
    nor did the sword of Saul return unbloodied.
²³ “Saul and Jonathan:
    in life they were beloved and kind;
    in death they were not separated.
They were swifter than eagles
    and stronger than lions.
