18_JOB_03_01 after this opened Job his mouth, And Cursed his day.
18_JOB_03_02 And Job spake, And said,
18_JOB_03_03 let the day perish wherein I was born, And the night [ in which] it was said, there Is A man child conceived.
18_JOB_03_04 let that day be darkness; let not God regard it from above, neither let the light shine upon it.
18_JOB_03_05 let darkness And the shadow of death stain it; let A cloud dwell upon it; let the blackness of the day terrify it.
18_JOB_03_06 as [ for] that night, let darkness seize upon it; let it not be joined unto the days of the year, let it not come into the number of the months.
18_JOB_03_07 Lo, let that night be solitary, let no joyful voice come therein.
18_JOB_03_08 let them curse it that curse the day, who are ready to raise up their mourning.
18_JOB_03_09 let the stars of the twilight thereof be dark; let it Look for light, but [ have] none; neither let it see the dawning of the day:
18_JOB_03_10 because it shut not up the doors of my [ mother's] womb, nor hid sorrow from mine eyes.
18_JOB_03_11 why died I not from the womb? [ why] did I [ not] give up the Ghost when I came out of the belly?
18_JOB_03_12 why did the knees prevent me? or why the breasts that I should suck?
18_JOB_03_13 for now should I have lain still And been quiet, I should have slept: Then had I been at rest,
18_JOB_03_14 with kings And counsellors of the earth, which built desolate places for themselves;
18_JOB_03_15 or with princes that had gold, who filled their houses with silver:
18_JOB_03_16 or as an hidden untimely birth I had not been; as infants [ which] never saw light.
18_JOB_03_17 there the wicked cease [ from] troubling; And there the weary be at rest.
18_JOB_03_18 [ there] the prisoners rest together; they hear not the voice of the oppressor.
18_JOB_03_19 the small And great are there; And the servant [ Is] free from his master.
18_JOB_03_20 Wherefore Is light given to him that Is in misery, And life unto the bitter [ in] soul;
18_JOB_03_21 which long for death, but it [ cometh] not; And dig for it more than for hid treasures;
18_JOB_03_22 which Rejoice exceedingly, [ And] are glad, when they can find the grave?
18_JOB_03_23 [ why Is light given] to A man whose way Is hid, And whom God hath hedged in?
18_JOB_03_24 for my sighing cometh before I eat, And my roarings are poured out like the waters.
18_JOB_03_25 for the thing which I greatly feared Is come upon me, And that which I was afraid of Is come unto me.
18_JOB_03_26 I was not in safety, neither had I rest, neither was I quiet; yet Trouble came.
