19 “Thy glory, O Israel, is slain upon thy high places!
    How are the mighty fallen!

    publish it not in the streets of Ash′kelon;
lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice,
    lest the daughters of the uncircumcised exult.

21 “Ye mountains of Gilbo′a,

    nor upsurging of the deep![a]
For there the shield of the mighty was defiled,
    the shield of Saul, not anointed with oil.
