15 And David called one of the young men, and said, Go near, and fall upon him. And he smote him, so that he died.
16 And David said unto him, Thy blood be upon thy head; for thy mouth hath testified against thee, saying, I have slain Jehovah`s anointed.
17 And David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son
18 (and he bade them teach the children of Judah [the song of] the bow: behold, it is written in the book of Jashar):
19 Thy glory, O Israel, is slain upon thy high places! How are the mighty fallen!
20 Tell it not in Gath, Publish it not in the streets of Ashkelon; Lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, Lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph.
21 Ye mountains of Gilboa, Let there be no dew nor rain upon you, neither fields of offerings: For there the shield of the mighty was vilely cast away, The shield of Saul, not anointed with oil.
