1 post haec aperuit Iob os suum et maledixit diei suo
After thus he opened Job mouth his and he cursed day his.
2 et locutus est
And he answered Job and he said.
3 pereat dies in qua natus sum et nox in qua dictum est conceptus est homo
Let it perish [the] day [which] I was born on it and the night [which] it said he has been conceived a man.
4 dies ille vertatur in tenebras non requirat eum Deus desuper et non inlustret lumine
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 obscurent eum tenebrae et umbra mortis occupet eum caligo et involvatur amaritudine
Let them reclaim it darkness and deep darkness let it settle down over it cloud let them terrify it [the] darkness of day.
6 noctem illam tenebrosus turbo possideat non conputetur in diebus anni nec numeretur in mensibus
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 sit nox illa solitaria nec laude digna
There! the night that let it be barren may not it come a cry of joy in it.
8 maledicant ei qui maledicunt diei qui parati sunt suscitare Leviathan
Let them curse it cursers of a day the [ones] ready to rouse Leviathan.
9 obtenebrentur stellae caligine eius expectet lucem et non videat nec ortum surgentis aurorae
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 quia non conclusit ostia ventris qui portavit me nec abstulit mala ab oculis meis
For not it shut [the] doors of womb my and it hid trouble from eyes my.
11 quare non in vulva mortuus sum egressus ex utero non statim perii
Why? not from [the] womb did I die from [the] belly I came forth and I may expire?
12 quare exceptus genibus cur lactatus uberibus
Why? did they receive me knees and why? breasts that I will suckle.
13 nunc enim dormiens silerem et somno meo requiescerem
For now I lay down and I may be at peace I slept then - it is at rest to me.
14 cum regibus et consulibus terrae qui aedificant sibi solitudines

15 aut cum principibus qui possident aurum et replent domos suas argento

17 ibi impii cessaverunt a tumultu et ibi requieverunt fessi robore

25 quia timor quem timebam evenit mihi et quod verebar accidit

26 nonne dissimulavi nonne silui nonne quievi et venit super me indignatio
