2 Samuel 1:19KJV
Protestant Bible · KJV · Verse 19 of 27
"The beauty of Israel is slain upon thy high places: how are the mighty fallen!"
In context
17And David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son:
18(Also he bade them teach the children of Judah the bow: behold, written in the book of Jasher.)
19The beauty of Israel is slain upon thy high places: how are the mighty fallen!
20Tell not in Gath, publish not in the streets of Askelon; lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph.
21Ye mountains of Gilboa, no dew, neither rain, upon you, nor fields of offerings: for there the shield of the mighty is vilely cast away, the shield of Saul, not anointed with oil.
