Saul and Jonathan [were] lovely and pleasant in their lives, and in their death they were not divided: they were swifter than eagles, they were stronger than lions (1:23) Ye daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you in scarlet, with [other] delights, who put on ornaments of gold upon your apparel (1:24) How are the mighty fallen in the midst of the battle! O Jonathan, [thou wast] slain in thine high places (1:25) I am distressed for thee, my brother Jonathan: very pleasant hast thou been unto me: thy love to me was wonderful, passing the love of women (1:26) How are the mighty fallen, and the weapons of war perished!
(1:27)
