— 2 Samuel 1:19 —
20Tell it not in Gath, And tell it not as glad tidings in the streets of Ashkelon, Lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, Lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph.
21Ye mountains of Gilboa, Let not dew nor rain descend upon you, nor fields of firstfruits be upon you, For there the shield of the mighty ones has been grievously assailed; The shield of Saul was not anointed with oil.
