1AfterH310 thisH3651, JobH347 openedH6605 his mouthH6310 and cursedH7043 the day of hisH3117 birth. 2AndH6030 this is what he saidH559:
3“May the dayH3117 of my birthH3205 perishH6,and the nightH3915 it was saidH559,‘A boyH1397 is conceivedH2029.’4If only thatH1931 dayH3117 had turnedH1961 to darknessH2822!May GodH433 aboveH4605H408 disregard itH408H1875;may no lightH5105 shineH3313 upon itH5921.5May darknessH2822 and gloomH6757 reclaim itH1350,and a cloudH6053 settleH7931 over itH5921;may the blacknessH3650 of the dayH3117 overwhelm itH1204.6If only darknessH652 had takenH1931 that nightH3915 awayH3947!May it notH408 appearH2302 among the daysH3117 of the yearH8141;may it neverH408 be enteredH935 in anyH4557 of the monthsH3391.7BeholdH2009, may thatH1931 nightH3915 beH1961 barrenH1565;may noH408 joyful voiceH7445 comeH935 into it.8May it be cursedH779 by those who curseH6895 the dayH31171—those preparedH6264 to rouseH5782 LeviathanH3882.9May its morningH5399 starsH3556 grow darkH2821;may it waitH6960 in vainH369 for daylightH216;may it notH408 seeH7200 the breakingH6079 of dawnH7837.10ForH3588 that night did notH3808 shutH5462 the doorsH1817 of the wombH990to hideH5641 the sorrowH5999 from my eyesH5869.
