"And they mourned,ª° and wept,ª° and fastedª° until¹ even,ª for¹ Saul,ª and for¹ Jonathanª his son,ª and for¹ the peopleª of the LORD,ª and for¹ the houseª of Israel;ª because¹ they were fallenª° by the sword.ª" {2Sm 1:12} + "When¹ one toldª° me, saying,ª° Behold,¹ Saulª is dead,ª° thinking¹ to have¹ brought² good tidings,ª° I took holdª° of him, and slewª° him in Ziklag,ª who¹ [thought] that I would have givenª° him a reward for his tidings:ª ... How much more,¹ when¹ wickedª men²¹ have slainª°¹ a righteousª personª in his own houseª upon¹ his bed?ª shall I not¹ therefore now¹ requireª°¹ his bloodª of your hand,ª¹ and take you awayª°¹ from¹ the earth?ª" {2Sm 4:10-11} + "And when kingª Davidª cameª° to¹ Bahurim,ª behold,¹ thence¹¹ came outª° a manª of the familyª¹ of the houseª of Saul,ª whose nameª [was] Shimei,ª the sonª of Gera:ª he came forth,ª° and cursedª° still as he came.ª° ... The LORDª hath returnedª° upon¹ thee all¹ the bloodª of the houseª of Saul,ª in whose¹ stead¹ thou hast reigned;ª° and the LORDª hath deliveredª°¹ the kingdomª into the handª of Absalomª thy son:ª and, behold,¹ thou [art taken] in thy mischief,ª because¹ thou¹ [art] a bloodyª man.ª" {2Sm 16:5-8} + "But as for me,¹ when they were sick,ª° my clothingª [was] sackcloth:ª I humbledª° my soulª with fasting;ª and my prayerª returnedª° into¹ mine own bosom.ª ... I behaved²° myself¹ as though [he had been] my friendª [or] brother:ª I bowed downª° heavily,ª° as one that mournethª [for his] mother.ª" {Psa 35:13-14} + "Let them not¹ sayª° in their hearts,ª Ah,ª so would we have it:ª let them not¹ say,ª° We have swallowed him up.ª° ... Let them be ashamedª° and brought to confusionª° togetherª that rejoiceª at mine hurt:ª let them be clothedª° with shameª and dishonourª that magnifyª° [themselves] against¹ me." {Psa 35:25-26} + "Whoso mockethª° the poorª° reproachethª° his Maker:ª° [and] he that is gladª at calamitiesª shall not¹ be unpunished.ª°" {Prv 17:5} + "Rejoiceª° not¹ when thine enemyª° falleth,ª° and let not¹ thine heartª be gladª° when he stumbleth:ª° ... Lest¹ the LORDª seeª° [it], and it displeaseªª° him, and he turn awayª° his wrathª from¹¹ him." {Prv 24:17-18} |
