1 Afterward Job opened his mouth and cursed the day of his birth.
2 And Job said,
3 "Let the day perish on which I was to be born, And the night which said, 'A boy is conceived.'
4 "May that day be darkness; Let not God above care for it, Nor light shine on it.
5 "Let darkness and black gloom claim it; Let a cloud settle on it; Let the blackness of the day terrify it.
6 "As for that night, let darkness seize it; Let it not rejoice among the days of the year; Let it not come into the number of the months.
