Job 3:1-5 American Standard Version (ASV)

1. After this opened Job his mouth, and cursed his day.

2. And Job answered and said:

3. Let the day perish wherein I was born, And the night which said, There is a man-child conceived.

4. Let that day be darkness; Let not God from above seek for it, Neither let the light shine upon it.

5. Let darkness and the shadow of death claim it for their own; Let a cloud dwell upon it; Let all that maketh black the day terrify it.
