That night -- let darkness seize it; let it not be included among the days of the year; let it not enter among the number of the months!

Am I the sea, or the creature of the deep, that you must put me under guard?

God does not restrain his anger; under him the helpers of Rahab lie crushed.

He deprives the leaders of the earth of their understanding; he makes them wander in a trackless desert waste.

Since man's days are determined, the number of his months is under your control; you have set his limit and he cannot pass it.

"If evil is sweet in his mouth and he hides it under his tongue,

For he looks to the ends of the earth and observes everything under the heavens.

They brayed like animals among the bushes and were huddled together under the nettles.

Under the whole heaven he lets it go, even his lightning to the far corners of the earth.

The earth takes shape like clay under a seal; its features are dyed like a garment.

Who prepares prey for the raven, when its young cry out to God and wander about for lack of food?

Under the lotus trees it lies, in the secrecy of the reeds and the marsh.

(Who has confronted me that I should repay? Everything under heaven belongs to me!)
