Job 3




dourh@Job:3:1 @ After this Job opened his mouth, and cursed his day,

dourh@Job:3:2 @ and he said:

dourh@Job:3:3 @ Let the day perish wherein I was born, and the night in which it was said: A man child is conceived.

dourh@Job:3:4 @ Let that day be turned into darkness, let not God regard it from above, and let not the light shine upon it.

dourh@Job:3:5 @ Let darkness, and the shadow of death cover it, let a mist overspread it, and let it be wrapped up in bitterness.

dourh@Job:3:6 @ Let a darksome whirlwind seize upon that night, let it not be counted in the days of the year, nor numbered in the months.

dourh@Job:3:7 @ Let that night be solitary, and not worthy of praise.

dourh@Job:3:8 @ Let them curse it who curse the day. who are ready to raise up a leviathan:

dourh@Job:3:9 @ Let the stars be darkened with the mist thereof: let it expect light and not see it, nor the rising of the dawning of the day:

dourh@Job:3:10 @ Because it shut not up the doors of the womb that bore me, nor took away evils from my eyes.

dourh@Job:3:11 @ Why did I not die in the womb, why did I not perish when I came out of the belly?

dourh@Job:3:12 @ Why received upon the knees? why suckled at the breasts?

dourh@Job:3:13 @ For now I should have been asleep and still, and should have rest in my sleep.

dourh@Job:3:14 @ With kings and consuls of the earth, who build themselves solitudes:

dourh@Job:3:15 @ Or with princes, that possess gold, and All their houses with silver:

dourh@Job:3:16 @ Or as a hidden untimely birth I should not be, or as they that being conceived have not seen the light.

dourh@Job:3:17 @ There the wicked cease from tumult, and there the wearied in strength are at rest.

dourh@Job:3:18 @ And they sometime bound together without disquiet, have not heard the voice of the oppressor.

dourh@Job:3:19 @ The small and great are there, and the servant is free from his master.

dourh@Job:3:20 @ Why is light given to him that is in misery, and life to them that are in bitterness of soul?

dourh@Job:3:21 @ That look for death, and it cometh not, as they that dig for a treasure:

dourh@Job:3:22 @ And they rejoice exceedingly when they have found the grave.

dourh@Job:3:23 @ To a man whose way is hidden, and God hath surrounded him with darkness?

dourh@Job:3:24 @ Before I eat I sigh: and as overflowing waters, so is my roaring:

dourh@Job:3:25 @ For the fear which I feared hath come upon me: and that which I was afraid of, hath befallen me.

dourh@Job:3:26 @ Have I not dissembled? have I not kept silence? have I not been quiet? and indignation is come upon me.
