New Living Translation

Job 3:1-7 New Living Translation (NLT)

1. At last Job spoke, and he cursed the day of his birth.

2. He said:

3. “Let the day of my birth be erased,and the night I was conceived.

4. Let that day be turned to darkness.Let it be lost even to God on high,and let no light shine on it.

5. Let the darkness and utter gloom claim that day for its own.Let a black cloud overshadow it,and let the darkness terrify it.

6. Let that night be blotted off the calendar,never again to be counted among the days of the year,never again to appear among the months.

7. Let that night be childless.Let it have no joy.
