BibleText:

1 After this opened Job his mouth, and cursed his day.
2 And Job spoke, and said,
3 Let the day perish in which I was born, and the night [in which] it was said, There is a male child conceived.
4 Let that day be darkness; let not God regard it from above, neither let the light shine upon it.
5 Let darkness and the shadow of death stain it; let a cloud dwell upon it; let the blackness of the day terrify it.
6 As [for] that night, let darkness seize upon it; let it not be joined to the days of the year, let it not come into the number of the months.
7 Look, let that night be solitary, let no joyful voice come in it.
8 Let those curse it that curse the day, who are ready to raise up their mourning.
9 Let the stars of the twilight of it be dark; let it look for light, but [have] none; neither let it see the dawning of the day:
10 Because it did not shut up the doors of my [mother's] womb, nor hid sorrow from my eyes.
11 Why did I not die from the womb? [why] did I [not] give up the spirit when I came out of the belly?
12 Why did the knees precede me? or why the breasts that I should suck?
13 For now I would have lain still and been quiet, I would have slept: then I would have been at rest,
14 With kings and counselors of the earth, who built desolate places for themselves;
15 Or with princes that had gold, who filled their houses with silver:
16 Or as a hidden premature birth I never was; as infants [who] never saw light.
17 There the wicked cease [from] troubling; and there the weary are at rest.
18 [There] the prisoners rest together; they do not hear the voice of the oppressor.
19 The small and great are there; and the servant [is] free from his master.
20 Why is light given to him that is in misery, and life to the bitter [in] soul;
21 Who long for death, but it does not [come]; and dig for it more than for hid treasures;
22 Who rejoice exceedingly, [and] are glad, when they can find the grave?
23 [Why is light given] to a man whose way is hidden, and whom God has hedged in?
24 For my sighing comes before I eat, and my groanings are poured out like the waters.
25 For the thing that I greatly feared has arrived, and what I was afraid of has come to me.
26 I was not in safety, neither did I have rest, neither was I quiet; yet trouble came.
