"Do not prolong the night, even if people rise on their behalf. "
— Job 36:20, Catholic Public Domain Version
“Desire not the night, when people are cut off in their place.”

“Don't desire the night, when people are cut off in their place.”
“Do not long for the cover of night to drag people away from their homes.”
“Prolong not the night that people may come up for them.”

Your case has been judged like that of the impious; you will withdraw your plea and your judgment.
Therefore, do not let anger overwhelm you so that you oppress another; neither should you allow a multitude of gifts to influence you.
Lay down your greatness without distress, and put aside all of your power with courage.
Do not prolong the night, even if people rise on their behalf.
Be careful that you do not turn to iniquity; for, after your misery, you have begun to follow this.
Behold, God is exalted in his strength, and there is no one like him among the law-givers.
Who is able to investigate his ways? And who can say, “You have done iniquity,” to him?
