¹⁹ The splendor of Israel has been slain upon your high places.
How the mighty warriors have fallen!
²⁰ You must not tell about it in Gath.
You must not publish it in the streets of Ashkelon.
If you do, the daughters of the Philistines will rejoice.
The daughters of the uncircumcised will celebrate.

²¹ You mountains of Gilboa, may no dew or rain fall on you.
May your fields produce no special offerings.^[a]
For there the shield of the mighty was desecrated.
The shield of Saul was not anointed with oil.
