That day – let it be darkness; let not God on high regard it, nor let light shine on it!

That night – let darkness seize it; let it not be included among the days of the year; let it not enter among the number of the months!

Indeed, let that night be barren; let no shout of joy penetrate it!

There was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job. And that man was pure and upright, one who feared God and turned away from evil.

His possessions included 7,000 sheep, 3,000 camels, 500 yoke of oxen, and 500 female donkeys; in addition he had a very great household. Thus he was the greatest of all the people in the east.
