2 Samuel 1:23-27 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

23. "Saul and Jonathan, beloved and pleasant in their life, And in their death they were not parted; They were swifter than eagles, They were stronger than lions.

24. "O daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, Who clothed you luxuriously in scarlet, Who put ornaments of gold on your apparel.

25. "How have the mighty fallen in the midst of the battle! Jonathan is slain on your high places.

26. "I am distressed for you, my brother Jonathan; You have been very pleasant to me. Your love to me was more wonderful Than the love of women.

27. "How have the mighty fallen, And the weapons of war perished!"
