2 Samuel 1:21
“Therefore, nature has justly bestowed judgment upon those places where patricide would occur by depriving them of the gift of her bounty, so that by the condemnation of an innocent land, she might reveal the great punishments that await the guilty. Therefore, both the elements themselves and human beings are condemned…”

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.

19Set up a pillar, O Israel, for the slain that died upon thy high places: How are the mighty fallen!
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.
— 2 Samuel 1:21 —
22From the blood of the slain, and from the fat of the mighty, The bow of Jonathan returned not empty; And the sword of Saul turned not back empty.
23Saul and Jonathan, the beloved and the beautiful, were not divided: Comely were they in their life, and in their death they were not divided: They were swifter than eagles, And they were stronger than lions.
