Chapter 3
Job MKJV 3:1  After this Job opened his mouth and cursed his day.
Job MKJV 3:3  Let the day perish in which I was born, and the night which said, A man-child is conceived.
Job MKJV 3:4  Let that day be darkness. Let not God look upon it from above, neither let the light shine upon it.
Job MKJV 3:5  Let darkness and the shadow of death claim it. Let a cloud dwell upon it; Let the blackness of the day terrify it.
Job MKJV 3:6  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.
Job MKJV 3:7  Lo, let that night be barren; let no joyful voice come in it.
Job MKJV 3:8  Let those curse it who curse the day, who are ready to stir up Leviathan.
Job MKJV 3:9  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.
Job MKJV 3:10  For it did not shut up the doors of my mother's womb, nor hide sorrow from my eyes.
Job MKJV 3:11  Why did I not die from the womb, come from the womb and expire?
Job MKJV 3:12  Why did the knees go before me; or why the breasts, that I should suck?
Job MKJV 3:13  For now I should have lain still and been quiet; I should have slept. Then I would have been at rest
Job MKJV 3:14  with kings and wise men of the earth, who built ruins for themselves,
Job MKJV 3:15  or with princes who had gold, who filled their houses with silver;
Job MKJV 3:16  or as a hidden untimely birth I would not have been, like infants who did not see light.
Job MKJV 3:17  There the wicked cease from troubling, and there the weary are at rest;
Job MKJV 3:18  the prisoners are at rest together; they hear not the voice of the slave driver.
Job MKJV 3:19  The small and the great are there, and the slave is free from his master.
Job MKJV 3:20  Why is light given to one who is in misery, and life to the bitter in soul,
Job MKJV 3:21  who is waiting for death, but it comes not; and dig for it more than for treasures?
Job MKJV 3:22  They are rejoicing to exultation. They are glad when they can find the grave.
Job MKJV 3:23  To a man whose way is hidden, God has made a hedge about him.
Job MKJV 3:24  For my sighing comes before I eat, and my groanings are poured out like the waters.
Job MKJV 3:25  For the thing which I greatly feared has come upon me, and that which I was afraid of has come to me.
Job MKJV 3:26  I was not in safety, nor did I have rest, nor was I quiet; yet trouble comes.
