Job 3:1 After310 this opened6605 Job347 his mouth,6310 and cursed7043 his day.31172 And Job347 spake,6030{Heb. answered} and said,5593 Let the day3117 perish6 wherein I was born,3205 and the night3915inwhich it was said,559 There is a man child1397 conceived.20294 Let that day3117 be darkness;2822 let not God433 regard1875 it from above,4605 neither let the light5105 shine3313 upon it.
5 Let darkness2822 and the shadow of death6757 stain1350 it;{Or, challenge it} let a cloud6053 dwell7931 upon it; let the blackness3650 of the day3117 terrify1204 it.{Or, let them terrify it, as those who have a bitter day}6 As for that night,3915 let darkness652 seize3947 upon it; let it not be joined2302 unto the days3117{Or, let it not rejoice among the days} of the year,8141 let it not come935 into the number4557 of the months.33917 Lo, let that night3915 be solitary,1565 let no joyful voice7445 come935 therein.
8 Let them curse5344 it that curse779 the day,3117 who are ready6264 to raise up5782 their mourning.3882{Or, Leviathan}9 Let the stars3556 of the twilight5399 thereof be dark;2821 let it look6960 for light,216 but have none; neither let it see7200 the dawning6079 of the day:7837{Heb. the eyelids of the morning}10 Because it shut not up5462 the doors1817 of my mother's womb,990 nor hid5641 sorrow5999 from mine eyes.586911 Why died4191 I not from the womb?7358why did I not give up the ghost1478 when I came out3318 of the belly?99012 Why did the knees1290 prevent6923 me? or why the breasts7699 that I should suck?3243
Job 3:13 For now should I have lain still7901 and been quiet,8252 I should have slept:3462 then had I been at rest,511714 With kings4428 and counsellors3289 of the earth,776 which built1129 desolate places2723 for themselves;
15 Or with princes8269 that had gold,2091 who filled4390 their houses1004 with silver:370116 Or as an hidden2934 untimely birth5309 I had not been; as infants5768which never saw7200 light.21617 There the wicked7563 cease2308from troubling;7267 and there the weary30193581 be at rest.5117{Heb. wearied in strength}18There the prisoners615 rest7599 together;3162 they hear8085 not the voice6963 of the oppressor.506519 The small6996 and great1419 are there; and the servant5650is free2670 from his master.113
Job 3:20 Wherefore is light216 given5414 to him that is in misery,6001 and life2416 unto the bitter4751in soul;531521 Which long2442{Heb. wait} for death,4194 but it cometh not; and dig2658 for it more than for hid treasures;430122 Which rejoice8056 exceedingly,1524and are glad,7797 when they can find4672 the grave?691323Whyislightgiven to a man1397 whose way1870 is hid,5641 and whom God433 hath hedged in?552624 For my sighing585 cometh935 before6440 I eat,3899{Heb. before my meat} and my roarings7581 are poured out5413 like the waters.432525 For the thing which I greatly6343 feared6342 is come857 upon me,{Heb. I feared a fear, and it came upon me} and that which I was afraid3025 of is come935 unto me.
26 I was not in safety,7951 neither had I rest,8252 neither was I quiet;5117 yet trouble7267 came.935
