After
<0310>

this opened
<06605> (8804)

Job
<0347>

his mouth
<06310>_,

and cursed
<07043> (8762)

his day
<03117>_.

3:2

And Job
<0347>

spake
<06030> (8799)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

{spake: Heb. answered}

3:3

Let the day
<03117>

perish
<06> (8799)

wherein I was born
<03205> (8735)_,

and the night
<03915>

[in which] it was said
<0559> (8804)_,

There is a man child
<01397>

conceived
<02029> (8795)_.

3:4

Let that day
<03117>

be darkness
<02822>_;

let not God
<0433>

regard
<01875> (8799)

it from above
<04605>_,

neither let the light
<05105>

shine
<03313> (8686)

upon it.

3:5

Let darkness
<02822>

and the shadow of death
<06757>

stain
<01350> (8799)

it; let a cloud
<06053>

dwell
<07931> (8799)

upon it; let the blackness
<03650>

of the day
<03117>

terrify
<01204> (8762)

it. {stain: or, challenge} {let the...: or, let them terrify it, as those who have a bitter day}

3:6

As [for] that night
<03915>_,

let darkness
<0652>

seize
<03947> (8799)

upon it; let it not be joined
<02302> (8799)

unto the days
<03117>

of the year
<08141>_,

let it not come
<0935> (8799)

into the number
<04557>

of the months
<03391>_.

{let it not be...: or, let it not rejoice among the days}

3:7

Lo, let that night
<03915>

be solitary
<01565>_,

let no joyful voice
<07445>

come
<0935> (8799)

therein.

3:8

Let them curse
<05344> (8799)

it that curse
<0779> (8802)

the day
<03117>_,

who are ready
<06264>

to raise up
<05782> (8788)

their mourning

Let the stars
<03556>

of the twilight
<05399>

thereof be dark
<02821> (8799)_;

let it look
<06960> (8762)

for light
<0216>_,

but [have] none; neither let it see
<07200> (8799)

the dawning
<06079>

of the day

Because it shut not up
<05462> (8804)

the doors
<01817>

of my [mother's] womb
<0990>_,

nor hid
<05641> (8686)

sorrow
<05999>

from mine eyes
<05869>_.

3:11

Why died
<04191> (8799)

I not from the womb
<07358>_?

[why] did I [not] give up the ghost
<01478> (8799)

when I came out
<03318> (8804)

of the belly
<0990>_?

3:12

Why did the knees
<01290>

prevent
<06923> (8765)

me? or why the breasts
<07699>

that I should suck
<03243> (8799)_?

3:13

For now should I have lain still
<07901> (8804)

and been quiet
<08252> (8799)_,

I should have slept
<03462> (8804)_:

then had I been at rest
<05117> (8799)_,
