1 After this opened Job his mouth, and cursed his day. |
2 And Job spake, and said, |
3 Let the day perish wherein I was born, and the night in which it was said, There is a man child conceived. |
4 Let that day be darkness; let not God regard it from above, neither let the light shine upon it. |
5 Let darkness and the shadow of death stain it; let a cloud dwell upon it; let the blackness of the day terrify it. |
6 As for that night, let darkness seize upon it; let it not be joined unto the days of the year, let it not come into the number of the months. |
7 Lo, let that night be solitary, let no joyful voice come therein. |
8 Let them curse it that curse the day, who are ready to raise up their mourning. |
9 Let the stars of the twilight thereof be dark; let it look for light, but have none; neither let it see the dawning of the day: |
10 Because it shut not up the doors of my mother's womb, nor hid sorrow from mine eyes. |
