Job 3:4-9 ▼

4 That day—let it be darkness, || Do not let God require it from above, || Nor let light shine on it.

5 Let darkness and death-shade redeem it, || Let a cloud dwell on it, || Let them terrify it as the most bitter of days.

6 That night—let thick darkness take it, || Let it not be united to days of the year, || Let it not come into the number of months.

7 Behold! That night—let it be barren, || Let no singing come into it.

8 Let the cursers of day mark it, || Who are ready to wake up Leviathan.

9 Let the stars of its twilight be dark, || Let it wait for light, and there is none, || And let it not look on the eyelids of the dawn.
