2 Samuel 19:2-4
victory <08668> [victory. Heb. salvation, or, deliverance. turned.]
city <05892> [into the city.]
stole .............. steal <01589> [steal.]
covered <03813> [covered.]
son ..... son ... son <01121> [O my son.]
It is allowed by competent critics that the lamentation of David over his son, of which this forms a part, is exceedingly pathetic; and Calmet properly remarks, that the frequent repetition of the name of the deceased is common in the language of lamentation.
