Job 3:3-10 “May the day of my birth perish, and the night it was said, ‘A boy is conceived.’

BSB⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ “May the day of my birth perish, and the night it was said, ‘A boy is conceived.’ ⁴ If only that day had turned to darkness! May God above disregard it; may no light shine upon it. ⁵ May darkness and gloom reclaim it, and a cloud settle over it; may the blackness of the day overwhelm it. ⁶ If only darkness had taken that night away! May it not appear among the days of the year; may it never be entered in any of the months. ⁷ Behold, may that night be barren; may no joyful voice come into it. ⁸ May it be cursed by those who curse the day—those prepared to rouse Leviathan. ⁹ May its morning stars grow dark; may it wait in vain for daylight; may it not see the breaking of dawn. ¹⁰ For that night did not shut the doors of the womb to hide the sorrow from my eyes.
