Job 3:1-6

1 After all this, Job [finally] opened his mouth and cursed the day he was born.
2 Job said,
3 "Scratch out the day I was born and the night that said, 'A boy has been conceived!'
4 "That day-- let it be pitch-black. Let God above not [even] care about it. Let no light shine on it.
5 Let the darkness and long shadows claim it as their own. Let a dark cloud hang over it. Let the gloom terrify it.
6 "That night-- let the blackness take it away. Let it not be included in the days of the year or be numbered among the months.
