New International Version

Job 3:4-8 New International Version (NIV)

4. That day—may it turn to darkness; may God above not care about it; may no light shine on it.

5. May gloom and utter darkness claim it once more; may a cloud settle over it; may blackness overwhelm it.

6. That night—may thick darkness seize it; may it not be included among the days of the year nor be entered in any of the months.

7. May that night be barren; may no shout of joy be heard in it.

8. May those who curse days curse that day, those who are ready to rouse Leviathan.
