2 Samuel 1:20-22

Common English Bible

²⁰ Don’t talk about it in Gath;
        don’t bring news of it to Ashkelon’s streets,
    or else the Philistines’ daughters will rejoice;
    the daughters of the uncircumcised will celebrate.
²¹ You hills of Gilboa!
    Let there be no dew or rain on you,
    and no fields yielding grain offerings.^[a]
Because it was there that the mighty warrior’s^[b] shield was defiled—
    the shield of Saul!—never again anointed with oil.
²² Jonathan’s bow never wavered from the blood of the slain,
    from the gore of the warriors.
        Never did Saul’s sword return empty.
