7 Bible Verses about Never Being Born

The Son of Man goes, as it has been written of Him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been good for that man if he had not been born.

And I commended the dead who already have died, more than the living who are living now. Yea, better than both is he who has not yet been, who has not seen the evil work that is done under the sun.

After this Job opened his mouth and cursed his day. And Job spoke and said, Let the day perish in which I was born, and the night which said, A man-child is conceived.read more.
Let that day be darkness. Let not God look upon it from above, neither let the light shine upon it. Let darkness and the shadow of death claim it. Let a cloud dwell upon it; Let the blackness of the day terrify it. 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. Lo, let that night be barren; let no joyful voice come in it. Let those curse it who curse the day, who are ready to stir up Leviathan. Let the stars of its twilight be dark; let it look for light, but have none. Let it not see the eyelids of the dawn. For it did not shut up the doors of my mother's womb, nor hide sorrow from my eyes. Why did I not die from the womb, come from the womb and expire? Why did the knees go before me; or why the breasts, that I should suck? For now I should have lain still and been quiet; I should have slept. Then I would have been at rest with kings and wise men of the earth, who built ruins for themselves, or with princes who had gold, who filled their houses with silver; or as a hidden untimely birth I would not have been, like infants who did not see light. There the wicked cease from troubling, and there the weary are at rest; the prisoners are at rest together; they hear not the voice of the slave driver. The small and the great are there, and the slave is free from his master.

or as a hidden untimely birth I would not have been, like infants who did not see light.

I should have been as though I had not been; I would have been carried from the womb to the grave.

Woe is me, my mother, that you have borne me, a man of strife and a man of contention to the whole earth! I have not loaned, nor have men loaned to me; yet every one curses me.

The Son of Man indeed goes, as it has been written of Him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It were good for that man if he had never been born.
