1. After this Job opened his mouth, and cursed the day of his birth.
2. Job answered:
3. “Let the day perish in which I was born,the night which said, ‘There is a boy conceived.’
4. Let that day be darkness.Don’t let God from above seek for it,neither let the light shine on it.
5. Let darkness and the shadow of death claim it for their own.Let a cloud dwell on it.Let all that makes black the day terrify it.
6. As for that night, let thick darkness seize on it.Let it not rejoice amongst the days of the year.Let it not come into the number of the months.
7. Behold, let that night be barren.Let no joyful voice come therein.
