And [G2532] after [G3326] this [G3778] Job opened the [G3588] mouth [G4750] of him [G1473] and [G2532] cursed [G2672] the [G3588] his day [G2250][G1473],
2
saying [G3004],
3
May be destroyed the [G3588] day [G2250] in [G1722] which [G3739] I was born [G1080], and [G2532] the [G3588] night [G3571] in [G1722] which [G3739] they said [G2036], look [G2400], a male .
4
the [G3588] that night [G3571][G1565] May be darkness [G4655], and [G2532] not [G3361] may search out it [G1473] the [G3588] Boss '[G2962] from above , nor [G3366] may come [G2064] into [G1519] it [G1473] brightness [G5338].
5
may take But [G1161] it [G1473] darkness [G4655] and [G2532] shadow [G4639] of death [G2288]. May come [G1904] upon [G1909] it [G1473] dimness [G1105]. And [G2532] may be disturbed [G5015] the [G3588] day [G2250] that [G1565],
6
and [G2532] the [G3588] that night [G3571][G1565]. May have carried away it [G1473] darkness [G4655]. May it not be [G3361] for [G1519] days [G2250] [of the] year [G1763], nor [G3366] may it be counted for [G1519] days [G2250] of months [G3376].
7
But the [G3588] that night [G3571][G1565] may] be grief [G3601], and [G2532] may not [G3361] come [G2064] upon [G1909] it [G1473] gladness [G2167], nor [G3366] a cause for joy .
8
But may curse [G2672] it [G1473] the [G3588] [one] cursing [G2672] the [G3588] day [G2250] that [G1565], the [G3588] [ones] being about [G3195] to awaken [G1326] the [G3588] Leviathan.
9
May be enveloped in darkness [G4656] the [G3588] stars of the [G3588] that night [G3571][G1565], and [G2532] not [G3361] remain [G5278], and [G2532] for [G1519] illumination [G5462] not [G3361] come [G2064]. And [G2532] may not [G3361] [be] seen [G1492] morning star arising .
10
For [G3754] it did not [G3756] close up [G4788] gates [G4439] womb [G1064] of my mother's [G3384][G1473], dismissed for [G1063] it would have misery [G4192] from my eyes [G3788][G1473].
11
For why [G1302][G1063] in [G1722] belly [G2836] did I not come to an end [G3756][G5053]? from [G1537] womb [G1064] But instead [G1161] I came forth [G1831], and [G2532] was not straightway [G3756] destroyed ?
12
And why did [G2444][G1161] meet [G4876] me [G1473] the [G3588] knees [G1119]? And why did [G2444][G1161] [on the] breasts [G3149] I nurse [G2337].
13
Now [G3568] going to bed [G2837] I should be stilled [G2270]; and having slept [G1161] rested ;
14
with [G3326] kings , counselors [G1010] of land '[G1093], who [G3739] prance with [G1909] swords ;
15
or [G2228] with [G3326] rulers , whose [G3739] [was] abundant [G4183] the [G3588] gold [G5557], who [G3739] filled [G4130] the [G3588]ir houses [G3624][G1473] with silver .
16
Or [G2228] as if [G5618] a miscarriage [G1626] going forth [G1607] from out of [G1537] womb [G3388] a mother's [G3384], or [G2228] as [G5618] infants [G3516] who [G3739] looked not at [G3756][G1492] light [G5457].
17
There [G1563] impious ceased [G3973] rage [G2372] of anger [G3709]; there [G1563] [are] rested exhausted the [G3588] in body [G4983].
18
But with one accord [G3661][G1161] the [G3588] [ones] being bound [G1210] do not hear [G3756] voice [G5456] of tribute-gatherer .
19
Small [G3397] and [G2532] great [G3173] are there [G1563], even [G2532] attendant [G2324] being in awe of the [G3588] his boss [G2962][G1473].
20
For why [G2444][G1063] has been given [G1325] to the [G3588] [ones] in [G1722] bitterness [G4088] light [G5457], and life [G2222][G1161] to the [G3588] in [G1722] griefs [G3601] souls [G5590]?
21
the ones who [G3739] long for [G2442] the [G3588] death [G2288], and [G2532] do not [G3756] attain [G5177]; rooting it up as if [G5618] for treasures [G2344];
22
overjoyed and [G1161] they become [G1096] if [G1437] they should attain it . Death [G2288] to a man [is] rest .
23
not [G3756] the [G3588] way [G3598] was] concealed , hemmed in [G4788] for [G1063] the [G3588] God '[G2316] against [G2596] him [G1473].
24
before [G4253] For [G1063] the [G3588] my grain [G4621][G1473] moaning [G4726] comes [G2240] to me [G1473], and [G2532] will be poured as [G5613] waters [G5204] roaring .
25
For fear [G5401][G1063] which [G3739] I thought about [G5431], came [G2064] to me [G1473]; and [G2532] which [G3739] I had in awe , met with [G4876] me [G1473].
26
Neither [G3777] was I at peace [G1514], nor [G3777] still [G2270], nor [G3777] I rested ; came [G2064] but [G1161] to me [G1473] wrath [G3709].
