Job 3:1-6

1After all this, Job ⌞finally⌟ opened his mouth and cursed the day he was born.

2Job said,

3“Scratch out the day I was born and the night that said, ‘A boy has been conceived!’

4“That day— let it be pitch-black. Let God above not ⌞even⌟ care about it. Let no light shine on it.

5Let the darkness and long shadows claim it as their own. Let a dark cloud hang over it. Let the gloom terrify it.

6“That night— let the blackness take it away. Let it not be included in the days of the year or be numbered among the months.
