| 3:1 | After this opened Job his mouth, and cursed his day. |
| 3:2 | And Job spake, and said, |
| 3:3 | Let the day perish wherein I was born, and the night in which it was said, There is a man child conceived. |
| 3:3 | 願我生的那日和說懷了男胎的那夜、都滅沒。 |
| 3:3 | 和说怀了男胎的那夜都灭没。 |
| jer:20:14 | Cursed be the day wherein I was born: let not the day wherein my mother bare me be blessed. |
| jer:20:15 | Cursed be the man who brought tidings to my father, saying, A man child is born unto thee; making him very glad. |
| jer:20:18 | Wherefore came I forth out of the womb to see labour and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame? |
| COBL | |
| 3:4 | Let that day be darkness; let not God regard it from above, neither let the light shine upon it. |
| 3:5 | Let darkness and the shadow of death stain it; let a cloud dwell upon it; let the blackness of the day terrify it. |
| 3:6 | As for that night, let darkness seize upon it; let it not be joined unto the days of the year, let it not come into the number of the months. |
| 3:7 | Lo, let that night be solitary, let no joyful voice come therein. |
| 3:8 | Let them curse it that curse the day, who are ready to raise up their mourning. |
| 3:9 | Let the stars of the twilight thereof be dark; let it look for light, but have none; neither let it see the dawning of the day: |
| 3:10 | Because it shut not up the doors of my mother's womb, nor hid sorrow from mine eyes. |
| 3:11 | Why died I not from the womb? why did I not give up the ghost when I came out of the belly? |
| 3:12 | Why did the knees prevent me? or why the breasts that I should suck? |
| 3:13 | For now should I have lain still and been quiet, I should have slept: then had I been at rest, |
| 3:14 | With kings and counsellors of the earth, which built desolate places for themselves; |
| 3:15 | Or with princes that had gold, who filled their houses with silver: |
| 3:16 | Or as an hidden untimely birth I had not been; as infants which never saw light. |
| 3:17 | There the wicked cease from troubling; and there the weary be at rest. |
| 3:18 | There the prisoners rest together; they hear not the voice of the oppressor. |
| 3:19 | The small and great are there; and the servant is free from his master. |
| 3:20 | Wherefore is light given to him that is in misery, and life unto the bitter in soul; |
| 3:21 | Which long for death, but it cometh not; and dig for it more than for hid treasures; |
| 3:22 | Which rejoice exceedingly, and are glad, when they can find the grave? |
| 3:23 | Why is light given to a man whose way is hid, and whom God hath hedged in? |
| 3:24 | For my sighing cometh before I eat, and my roarings are poured out like the waters. |
| 3:25 | For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of is come unto me. |
| 3:26 | I was not in safety, neither had I rest, neither was I quiet; yet trouble came. |
