2 Samuel 1:21-22

²¹O mountains of Gilboa,

may you have no dew or rain,

no fields yielding offerings of grain.

For there the shield of the mighty was defiled,

the shield of Saul, no longer anointed with oil.

²²From the blood of the slain,

from the fat of the mighty,

the bow of Jonathan did not retreat,

and the sword of Saul did not return empty.

— 2 Samuel 1:21-22
