Job 3:3-5

Expanded Bible

³ “Let the day I was born be destroyed,
    and the night it was said, ‘A boy is ·born [^Lconceived]!’
⁴ Let that day turn to darkness [^Ccontrast Gen. 1:3].
    Don’t let God ·care about [^Lseek] it.
    Don’t let light shine on it.
⁵ Let darkness and gloom ·have that day [^Lredeem it].
    Let a cloud ·hide [^Lsettle over] it.
    Let thick darkness ·cover its light [overwhelm the day].
