Job 3:8-13 New Century Version (NCV)

8. Let those who curse days curse that day.Let them prepare to wake up the sea monster Leviathan.

9. Let that day’s morning stars never appear;let it wait for daylight that never comes.Don’t let it see the first light of dawn,

10. because it allowed me to be bornand did not hide trouble from my eyes.

11. “Why didn’t I die as soon as I was born?Why didn’t I die when I came out of the womb?

12. Why did my mother’s knees receive me,and my mother’s breasts feed me?

13. If they had not been there,I would be lying dead in peace;I would be asleep and at rest
