Now when Job’s three friends—Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite—heard about all this adversity that had happened to him, each of them came from his home. They met together to go and sympathize with him and comfort him.

If only that day had turned to darkness!
May God above not care about it,
or light shine on it.

If only darkness had taken that night away!
May it not appear among the days of the year
or be listed in the calendar.

or with princes who had gold,
who filled their houses with silver.

They are ashamed because they had been confident of finding water.
When they arrive there, they are frustrated.

I wish I had never existed
but had been carried from the womb to the grave.

For I rescued the poor man who cried out for help,
and the fatherless child who had no one to support him.

He also had seven sons and three daughters.
