Job 3:1-6

1After this Job opened his mouth and cursed the day of his birth.

2And Job spoke, and said:

3“May the day perish on which I was born, And the night in which it was said, ‘A male child is conceived.’

4May that day be darkness; May God above not seek it, Nor the light shine upon it.

5May darkness and the shadow of death claim it; May a cloud settle on it; May the blackness of the day terrify it.

6As for that night, may darkness seize it; May it not rejoice among the days of the year, May it not come into the number of the months.
