2 Samuel 1:25-27 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

25. How could the valiant have fallen in battle? How could Jonathan have been slain on the heights?

26. I grieve over you, my brother Jonathan: exceedingly stately, and worthy to be loved above the love of women. As a mother loves her only son, so also did I love you.

27. How could the robust have fallen, and the weapons of war have perished?"
