Job Deplores His Birth
1 After this Job opened his mouth and cursed the day of his birth.
2 And Job1 spoke, and said:
3 “Maya the day perish on which I was born,
And the night in which it was said,
‘A male child is conceived.’
And the night in which it was said,
‘A male child is conceived.’
5 May darkness and athe shadow of death claim it;
May a cloud settle on it;
May the blackness of the day terrify it.
May a cloud settle on it;
May the blackness of the day terrify it.
