Job 3
1 After this Job opened his mouth, and cursed his day,
After thus he opened Job mouth his and he cursed day his.
2 saying,
And he answered Job and he said.
3 Let the day perish in which I was born, and that night in which they said, Behold a boy!
Let it perish [the] day [which] I was born on it and the night [which] it said he has been conceived a man.
4 Let that night be darkness, and let not the Lord regard it from above, neither let light come upon it.
The day that let it be darkness may not he care for it God above and may not it shine forth on it daylight.
5 But let darkness and the shadow of death seize it; let blackness come upon it;
Let them reclaim it darkness and deep darkness let it settle down over it cloud let them terrify it [the] darkness of day.
6 let that day and night be cursed, let darkness carry them away; let it not come into the days of the year, neither let it be numbered with the days of the months.
The night that let it take it darkness may not it rejoice among [the] days of [the] year in [the] number of [the] months may not it come.
7 But let that night be pain, and let not mirth come upon it, nor joy.
There! the night that let it be barren may not it come a cry of joy in it.
8 But let him that curses that day curse it, [even] he that is ready to attack the great whale.
Let them curse it cursers of a day the [ones] ready to rouse Leviathan.
9 Let the stars of that night be darkened; let it remain [dark], and not come into light; and let it not see the morning star arise:
Let them grow dark [the] stars of twilight its let it wait for light and not and may not it look on [the] eyelids of dawn.
10 because it shut not up the gates of my mother's womb, for [so] it would have removed sorrow from my eyes.
For not it shut [the] doors of womb my and it hid trouble from eyes my.
11 For why died I not in the belly? and [why] did I not come forth from the womb and die immediately?
Why? not from [the] womb did I die from [the] belly I came forth and I may expire?
12 and why did the knees support me? and why did I suck the breasts?
Why? did they receive me knees and why? breasts that I will suckle.
13 Now I should have lain down and been quiet, I should have slept and been at rest,
For now I lay down and I may be at peace I slept then - it is at rest to me.
14 with kings [and] councillors of the earth, who gloried in [their] swords;
With kings and counselors of [the] earth the [ones who] rebuilt ruins for themselves.
15 or with rulers, whose gold was abundant, who filled their houses with silver:
Or with princes [whom] gold [belonged] to them those [who] filled houses their silver.
16 or [I should have been] as an untimely birth proceeding from his mother's womb, or as infants who never saw light.
Or like a miscarriage hidden not was I? like children [who] not they have seen light.
17 There the ungodly have burnt out the fury of rage; there the wearied in body rest.
There wicked [people] they cease turmoil and there they rest weary [ones] of strength.
18 And the men of old time have together ceased to hear the exactor's voice.
Together prisoners they are at ease not they hear [the] voice of a taskmaster.
19 The small and great are there, and the servant that feared his lord.
Small and great [is] there he and a slave [is] free from master his.
20 For why is light given to those who are in bitterness, and life to those souls which are in griefs?
Why? does someone give to a sufferer light and life to [people] bitter of soul.
21 who desire death, and obtain it not, digging [for it] as [for] treasures;
Those [who] long for death and there not [is] it and they dug for it more than hidden treasures.
22 and would be very joyful if they should gain it?
The joyful [people] to rejoicing they exult if they find [the] grave.
23 Death [is] rest to [such] a man, for God has hedged him in.
To a man whom way his it is hidden and he has made inaccessible God behind him.
24 For my groaning comes before my food, and I weep being beset with terror.
If before food my groaning my it comes and they poured forth like water cries of distress my.
25 For the terror of which I meditated has come upon me, and that which I had feared has befallen me.
For a fear I feared and it came to me and [that] which I dreaded it came to me.
26 I was not at peace, nor quiet, nor had I rest; yet wrath came upon me.
Not I am at ease - and not I am at peace and not I am at rest and it has come turmoil.
