Job 3:5

Job Regrets His Birth

⁴
“May that day be darkness;
Let God above not care about it,
Nor light shine on it.
⁵ 
“Let darkness and gloom claim it for their own;
Let a cloud settle upon it;
Let all that blackens the day terrify it (the day that I was born).
⁶
“As for that night, let darkness seize it;
Let it not rejoice among the days of the year;
Let it not be counted in the number of the months.

And the end of it shall be like a bitter day.
