    Job 3
    • 1   After this hath Job opened his mouth, and revileth his day.
    • 2   And Job answereth and saith: --
    • 3   Let the day perish in which I am born, And the night that hath said: `A man-child hath been conceived.'
    • 4   That day--let it be darkness, Let not God require it from above, Nor let light shine upon it.
    • 5   Let darkness and death-shade redeem it, Let a cloud tabernacle upon it, Let them terrify it as the most bitter of days.
    • 6   That night--let thick darkness take it, Let it not be united to days of the year, Into the number of months let it not come.
    • 7   Lo! that night--let it be gloomy, Let no singing come into it.
    • 8   Let the cursers of day mark it, Who are ready to wake up Leviathan.
    • 9   Let the stars of its twilight be dark, Let it wait for light, and there is none, And let it not look on the eyelids of the dawn.
    • 10   Because it hath not shut the doors Of the womb that was mine! And hide misery from mine eyes.
    • 11   Why from the womb do I not die? From the belly I have come forth and gasp!
    • 12   Wherefore have knees been before me? And what are breasts, that I suck?
    • 13   For now, I have lain down, and am quiet, I have slept--then there is rest to me,
    • 14   With kings and counsellors of earth, These building wastes for themselves.
    • 15   Or with princes--they have gold, They are filling their houses with silver.
    • 16   (Or as a hidden abortion I am not, As infants--they have not seen light.)
    • 17   There the wicked have ceased troubling, And there rest do the wearied in power.
    • 18   Together prisoners have been at ease, They have not heard the voice of an exactor,
    • 19   Small and great are there the same. And a servant is free from his lord.
    • 20   Why giveth He to the miserable light, and life to the bitter soul?
    • 21   Who are waiting for death, and it is not, And they seek it above hid treasures.
    • 22   Who are glad--unto joy, They rejoice when they find a grave.
    • 23   To a man whose way hath been hidden, And whom God doth shut up?
    • 24   For before my food, my sighing cometh, And poured out as waters are my roarings.
    • 25   For a fear I feared and it meeteth me, And what I was afraid of doth come to me.
    • 26   I was not safe--nor was I quiet--Nor was I at rest--and trouble cometh!
