"May that day be turned into darkness, may God not seek it from above, and may light not illuminate it. "
— Job 3:4, Catholic Public Domain Version
“Let that day be darkness; let not God regard it from above, neither let the light shine upon it.”
“Let that day be darkness; Let not God from above seek for it, Neither let the light shine upon it. ”
“Let that day be darkness. Don't let God from above seek for it, neither let the light shine on it.”
“That day– let it be darkness; let not God on high regard it, nor let light shine on it!”
“Let that day be turned into darkness, let not God regard it from above, and let not the light shine upon it.”
“That day--let it be dark; let not God take note of it from on high, and let not the light be shining on it;”
“Let that day be darkness; let not God regard it from above, neither let the light shine upon it.”
After this, Job opened his mouth and cursed his day,
and this is what he said:
May the day perish on which I was born, and the night, in which it was said, “A man has been conceived.”
May that day be turned into darkness, may God not seek it from above, and may light not illuminate it.
Let darkness and the shadow of death obscure it, let a fog overtake it, and let it be enveloped in bitterness.
Let a whirlwind of darkness take hold of that night, let it not be counted in the days of the year, nor numbered in the months.
May that night be alone and unworthy of praise.
