noyes@Job:3:1 @ At length Job opened his mouth, and cursed the day of his birth.
noyes@Job:3:2 @ And Job spake and said:
noyes@Job:3:3 @ Perish the day in which I was born, and the night which said, "A manchild is conceived!"
noyes@Job:3:4 @ Let that day be darkness; Let not God seek it from above; Yea, let not the light shine upon it!
noyes@Job:3:5 @ Let darkness and the shadow of death redeem it; Let a cloud dwell upon it; Let whatever darkeneth the day terrify it!
noyes@Job:3:6 @ As for that night, let darkness seize upon it; Let it not rejoice among the days of the year; Let it not come into the number of the months!
noyes@Job:3:7 @ O let that night be unfruitful! Let there be in it no voice of joy;
noyes@Job:3:8 @ Let them that curse the day curse it, Who are skilful to stir up the leviathan!
noyes@Job:3:9 @ Let the stars of its twilight be darkened; Let it long for light, and have none; Neither let it see the eyelashes of the morning!
noyes@Job:3:10 @ Because it shut not up the doors of my mothers womb, And hid not trouble from mine eyes.
noyes@Job:3:11 @ Why died I not at my birth? Why did I not expire when I came forth from the womb?
noyes@Job:3:12 @ Why did the knees receive me, And why the breasts, that I might suck?
noyes@Job:3:13 @ For now should I lie down and be quiet; I should sleep; then should I be at rest,
noyes@Job:3:14 @ With kings and counsellors of the earth, Who built up for themselvesruins!
noyes@Job:3:15 @ Or with princes that had gold, And filled their houses with silver;
noyes@Job:3:16 @ Or, as a hidden untimely birth, I had perished; As infants which never saw the light.
noyes@Job:3:17 @ There the wicked cease from troubling; There the weary are at rest.
noyes@Job:3:18 @ There the prisoners rest together; They hear not the voice of the oppressor.
noyes@Job:3:19 @ The small and the great are there, And the servant is free from his master.
noyes@Job:3:20 @ Why giveth He light to him that is in misery, And life to the bitter in soul,
noyes@Job:3:21 @ Who long for death, and it cometh not, And dig for it more than for hid treasures;
noyes@Job:3:22 @ Who rejoice exceedingly, Yea, exult, when they can find a grave?
noyes@Job:3:23 @ Why is light given to a man from whom the way is hid, And whom God hath hedged in?
noyes@Job:3:24 @ For my sighing cometh before I eat, And my groans are poured out like water.
noyes@Job:3:25 @ For that which I dread overtaketh me; That at which I shudder cometh upon me.
noyes@Job:3:26 @ I have no peace, nor quiet, nor respite: Misery cometh upon me continually.
