2 Samuel 1:25 Context
23Saul and Ionathan were louely and pleasant in their liues, and in their death they were not diuided: they were swifter then Eagles, they were stronger then Lions. 24Yee daughters of Israel, weepe ouer Saul, who clothed you in scarlet, with other delights, who put on ornaments of golde vpon your apparell. 25How are the mightie fallen in the midst of the battell! O Ionathan, thou wast slaine in thine high places. 26I am distressed for thee, my brother Ionathan, very pleasant hast thou beene vnto mee: thy loue to mee was wonderfull, passing the loue of women. 27How are the mightie fallen, and the weapons of warre perished!
