New American Standard Bible (NASB)
Job 3
1 Afterward Job opened his mouth and cursed the day of his birth.
2 And Job said,
3 "Let the day perish on which I was to be born, And the night which said, ’A boy is conceived.’
4 "May that day be darkness; Let not God above care for it, Nor light shine on it.
5 "Let darkness and black gloom claim it; Let a cloud settle on it; Let the blackness of the day terrify it.
6 "As for that night, let darkness seize 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 shout enter it.
8 "Let those curse it who curse the day, Who are prepared to rouse Leviathan.
9 "Let the stars of its twilight be darkened; Let it wait for light but have none, And let it not see the breaking dawn;
10 Because it did not shut the opening of my mother’s womb, Or hide trouble from my eyes.
11 "Why did I not die at birth, Come forth from the womb and expire?
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
