In context

¹⁷Then David took up this lament for Saul and his son Jonathan,

¹⁸And he ordered that the sons of Judah be taught the Song of the Bow. It is written in the Book of Jashar:

¹⁹“Your glory, O Israel, lies slain on your heights. How the mighty have fallen!

²⁰Tell it not in Gath; proclaim it not in the streets of Ashkelon, lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, and the daughters of the uncircumcised exult.

²¹O mountains of Gilboa, may you have no dew or rain, no fields yielding offerings of grain. For there the shield of the mighty was defiled, the shield of Saul, no longer anointed with oil.
