2 Samuel 1:25-27
Contemporary English Version

25 Our warriors have fallen
    in the heat of battle,
and Jonathan lies dead
    on the hills of Gilboa.

26 Jonathan, I miss you most!
I loved you
    like a brother.
You were truly loyal to me,
more faithful than a wife
    to her husband.[a]

27 Our warriors have fallen,
and their weapons[b]
    are destroyed.
