Job 3:1 After this Job opened his mouth and cursed his day.
\nJob 3:2 And Job answered and said:
\nJob 3:3 Let the day perish in which I was born, and the night which said, A man-child has been conceived.
\nJob 3:4 Let that day be darkness! Let not God look on it from above, nor let the light shine on it.
\nJob 3:5 Let darkness and the shadow of death seize upon it. Let a cloud dwell on it. Let all that blackens the day terrify it.
\nJob 3:6 As for that night, let darkness seize it! Let it not be joined to the days of the year. Let it not come into the number of the months.
\nJob 3:7 Behold, let that night be barren; let no joyful voice come in it.
\nJob 3:8 Let those curse it who curse the day, those ready to stir up Leviathan.
\nJob 3:9 Let the stars of its twilight be dark; let it look for light, but have none, let it wait for eyelids of the dawn.
\nJob 3:10 For it did not shut up the doors of my mother’s womb; nor did it hide toil from my eyes.
\nJob 3:11 Why did I not die from the womb, come from the womb and expire?
\nJob 3:12 Why did the knees go before me; or why the breasts, that I should suck?
\nJob 3:13 For now I would have lain down and have been quiet; I would have slept. Then I would have been at rest,
\nJob 3:14 with kings and wise men of the earth, who built ruins for themselves;
\nJob 3:15 or with chiefs; they had gold, they filled their houses with silver;
\nJob 3:16 or as a hidden miscarriage, I would not have been, like infants who never saw light.
\nJob 3:17 There the wicked cease from turmoil, and there the weary are at rest;
\nJob 3:18 the prisoners are at ease together, they hear not the voice of the slave driver;
\nJob 3:19 the small and the great, he is there, and the slave free from his master.
\nJob 3:20 Why is light given to the miserable one, and life to him who is bitter in soul;
\nJob 3:21 who is waiting for death, but it is not; and they dig for it more than for treasures?
\nJob 3:22 They are rejoicing to exultation. They are glad when they find the grave.
\nJob 3:23 To a man whose way is hidden, God has made a hedge about him.
\nJob 3:24 For my sighing comes before my food; and my groanings are poured out like the waters.
\nJob 3:25 For the dreadful thing I dreaded has come on me; and that which I feared has come to me.
\nJob 3:26 I am not at ease, nor am I at rest; nor am I quiet; yet turmoil comes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
