Job 3 Verses
1
|
After this Job opened his mouth and cursed the day he was born. |
3
|
"Let the day on which I was born perish, and the night that said, 'A man has been conceived!' |
4
|
That day— let it be darkness; let not God on high regard it, nor let light shine on it! |
5
|
Let darkness and the deepest shadow claim it; let a cloud settle on it; let whatever blackens the day terrify it! |
6
|
That night— let darkness seize it; let it not be included among the days of the year; let it not enter among the number of the months! |
7
|
Indeed, let that night be barren; let no shout of joy penetrate it! |
8
|
Let those who curse the day curse it— those who are prepared to rouse Leviathan. |
9
|
Let its morning stars be darkened; let it wait for daylight but find none, nor let it see the first rays of dawn, |
10
|
because it did not shut the doors of my mother's womb on me, nor did it hide trouble from my eyes! |
11
|
"Why did I not die at birth, and why did I not expire as I came out of the womb? |
12
|
Why did the knees welcome me, and why were there two breasts that I might nurse at them? |
13
|
For now I would be lying down and would be quiet, I would be asleep and then at peace |
14
|
with kings and counselors of the earth who built for themselves places now desolate, |
15
|
or with princes who possessed gold, who filled their palaces with silver. |
16
|
Or why was I not buried like a stillborn infant, like infants who have never seen the light? |
17
|
There the wicked cease from turmoil, and there the weary are at rest. |
18
|
There the prisoners relax together; they do not hear the voice of the oppressor. |
19
|
Small and great are there, and the slave is free from his master. |
20
|
"Why does God give light to one who is in misery, and life to those whose soul is bitter, |
21
|
to those who wait for death that does not come, and search for it more than for hidden treasures, |
22
|
who rejoice even to jubilation, and are exultant when they find the grave? |
23
|
Why is light given to a man whose way is hidden, and whom God has hedged in? |
24
|
For my sighing comes in place of my food, and my groanings flow forth like water. |
25
|
For the very thing I dreaded has happened to me, and what I feared has come upon me. |
26
|
I have no ease, I have no quietness; I cannot rest; turmoil has come upon me." |
