Job 3 Verses
1
|
AFTER THIS, Job opened his mouth and cursed his day (birthday). |
3
|
Let the day perish wherein I was born, and the night which announced, There is a man-child conceived. |
4
|
Let that day be darkness! May not God above regard it, nor light shine upon it. |
5
|
Let gloom and deep darkness claim it for their own; let a cloud dwell upon it; let all that blackens the day terrify it (the day that I was born). |
6
|
As for that night, let thick darkness seize it; let it not rejoice among the days of the year; let it not come into the number of the months. |
7
|
Yes, let that night be solitary and barren; let no joyful voice come into it. |
8
|
Let those curse it who curse the day, who are skilled in rousing up Leviathan. |
9
|
Let the stars of the early dawn of that day be dark; let [the morning] look in vain for the light, nor let it behold the day's dawning, |
10
|
Because it shut not the doors of my mother's womb nor hid sorrow and trouble from my eyes. |
11
|
Why was I not stillborn? Why did I not give up the ghost when my mother bore me? |
12
|
Why did the knees receive me? Or why the breasts, that I should suck? |
13
|
For then would I have lain down and been quiet; I would have slept; then would I have been at rest [in death] |
14
|
With kings and counselors of the earth, who built up [now] desolate ruins for themselves, |
15
|
Or with princes who had gold, who filled their houses with silver. |
16
|
Or [why] was I not a miscarriage, hidden and put away, as infants who never saw light? |
17
|
There [in death] the wicked cease from troubling, and there the weary are at rest. |
18
|
There the [captive] prisoners rest together; they hear not the taskmaster's voice. |
19
|
The small and the great are there, and the servant is free from his master. [Jer. 20:14-18.] |
20
|
Why is light [of life] given to him who is in misery, and life to the bitter in soul, |
21
|
Who long and wait for death, but it comes not, and dig for it more than for hidden treasures, |
22
|
Who rejoice exceedingly and are elated when they find the grave? |
23
|
[Why is the light of day given] to a man whose way is hidden, and whom God has hedged in? |
24
|
For my sighing comes before my food, and my groanings are poured out like water. |
25
|
For the thing which I greatly fear comes upon me, and that of which I am afraid befalls me. |
26
|
I was not or am not at ease, nor had I or have I rest, nor was I or am I quiet, yet trouble came and still comes [upon me]. |
