2 Samuel 1:21 in Context — 2 Samuel 1

19 Pereceu a glória de Israel sobre tuas montanhas! Como caíram os valentes!

20 Não o anuncieis em Gate, Não deis as novas nas praças de Asquelom; Para que não se alegrem as filhas dos filisteus, Para que não saltem de alegria as filhas dos incircuncisos.

21 Montes de Gilboa, nem orvalho nem chuva caia sobre vós, nem sejais terras de ofertas; Porque ali foi rejeitado o escudo dos valentes, O escudo de Saul, como se não houvesse sido ungido com azeite.

22 Do sangue de mortos, da gordura de valentes, o arco de Jônatas nunca retrocedeu, nem a espada de Saul voltou vazia.

23 Saul e Jônatas, amados e queridos em sua vida, Em sua morte tampouco foram separados: Mais ligeiros que águas, Mais fortes que leões.
