Job 3:4-8

NSB(i) 4 »Let that day turn to darkness. May God above not care about it. Let no light shine upon it. 5 »Let darkness and the shadow of death claim it once more. May a cloud settle over it and may blackness overwhelm its light. 6 »About that night, may thick darkness seize it. May it not be included among the days of the year nor be entered in any of the months. 7 »Let the night be barren and may no shout of joy be heard in it. 8 »May those who curse days curse that day, those who are ready to lift up Leviathan (Babylonian symbol of sadness and mourning).
