2 Samuel 1:23-27

New American Standard Bible

²³ Saul and Jonathan, beloved and delightful in ^[a]life,
And in their deaths they were not separated;
^(A)They were swifter than eagles,
^(B)They were mightier than lions.
²⁴ Daughters of Israel, weep over Saul,
Who clothed you in scarlet, with jewelry,
Who put gold jewelry on your apparel.
^25 (C)How the mighty have fallen in the midst of the battle!
Jonathan is ^[b]slaughtered on your high places.
²⁶ I am distressed for you, my brother Jonathan;
You have been ^[c]a close friend to me.
^(D)Your love for me was more wonderful
Than the love of women.
^27 (E)How the mighty have fallen,
And ^(F)the weapons of war have perished!”
