Geneva Study Bible
   1: After this Job opened his mouth, and cursed the day of his birth.
   2: Job answered:
   3: "Let the day perish in which I was born, The night which said, 'There is a man-child conceived.'
   4: Let that day be darkness; Don't let God from above seek for it, Neither let the light shine on it.
   5: Let darkness and the shadow of death claim it for their own. Let a cloud dwell on it. Let all that makes black the day terrify it.
   6: As for that night, let thick darkness seize on it. Let it not rejoice among the days of the year. Let it not come into the number of the months.
   7: Behold, let that night be barren. Let no joyful voice come therein.
   8: Let them curse it who curse the day, Who are ready to rouse up leviathan.
   9: Let the stars of the twilight of it be dark. Let it look for light, but have none, Neither let it see the eyelids of the morning,
   10: Because it didn't shut up the doors of my mother's womb, Nor did it hide trouble from my eyes.
   11: "Why didn't I die from the womb? Why didn't I give up the spirit when my mother bore me?
   12: Why did the knees receive me? Or why the breast, that I should suck?
   13: For now should I have lain down and been quiet. I should have slept, then I would have been at rest,
   14: With kings and counselors of the earth, Who built up waste places for themselves;
   15: Or with princes who had gold, Who filled their houses with silver:
   16: Or as a hidden untimely birth I had not been, As infants who never saw light.
   17: There the wicked cease from troubling; There the weary are at rest.
   18: There the prisoners are at ease together. They don't hear the voice of the taskmaster.
   19: The small and the great are there. The servant is free from his master.
   20: "Why is light given to him who is in misery, Life to the bitter in soul,
   21: Who long for death, but it doesn't come; Dig for it more than for hidden treasures,
   22: Who rejoice exceedingly, Are glad, when they can find the grave?
   23: Why is light given to a man whose way is hid, Whom God has hedged in?
   24: For my sighing comes before I eat, My groanings are poured out like water.
   25: For the thing which I fear comes on me, That which I am afraid of comes to me.
   26: I am not at ease, neither am I quiet, neither have I rest; But trouble comes."
