7. Lo, let that night be barren; let no joyful voice come therein.
8. Let them curse it that curse the day, who are ready to rouse up leviathan.
9. Let the stars of the twilight thereof be dark: let it look for light, but have none; neither let it behold the eyelids of the morning:
10. Because it shut not up the doors of my mother's womb, nor hid trouble from mine eyes.
11. Why died I not from the womb? why did I not give up the ghost when I came out of the belly?
12. Why did the knees receive me? or why the breasts, that I should suck?
13. For now should I have lain down and been quiet; I should have slept; then had I been at rest:
14. With kings and counsellors of the earth, which built up waste places for themselves;
15. Or with princes that had gold, who filled their houses with silver:
16. Or as an hidden untimely birth I had not been; as infants which never saw light.
