1 After this opened Job his mouth, and cursed his day. KJRV — Job 3:1
2 And Job spake, and said, KJRV — Job 3:2
3 Let the day perish wherein I was born, and the night in which it was said, There is a man child conceived. KJRV — Job 3:3
4 Let that day be darkness; let not God regard it from above, neither let the light shine upon it. KJRV — Job 3:4
5 Let darkness and the shadow of death stain it; let a cloud dwell upon it; let the blackness of the day terrify it. KJRV — Job 3:5
6 As for that night, let darkness seize upon it; let it not be joined unto the days of the year, let it not come into the number of the months. KJRV — Job 3:6
7 Lo, let that night be solitary, let no joyful voice come therein. KJRV — Job 3:7
8 Let them curse it that curse the day, who are ready to raise up their mourning. KJRV — Job 3:8
9 Let the stars of the twilight thereof be dark; let it look for light, but have none; neither let it see the dawning of the day: KJRV — Job 3:9
10 Because it shut not up the doors of my mother's womb, nor hid sorrow from mine eyes. KJRV — Job 3:10
11 Why died I not from the womb? why did I not give up the ghost when I came out of the belly? KJRV — Job 3:11
12 Why did the knees prevent me? or why the breasts that I should suck? KJRV — Job 3:12
13 For now should I have lain still and been quiet, I should have slept: then had I been at rest, KJRV — Job 3:13
14 With kings and counsellors of the earth, which build desolate places for themselves; KJRV — Job 3:14
15 Or with princes that had gold, who filled their houses with silver: KJRV — Job 3:15
16 Or as an hidden untimely birth I had not been; as infants which never saw light. KJRV — Job 3:16
17 There the wicked cease from troubling; and there the weary be at rest. KJRV — Job 3:17
18 There the prisoners rest together; they hear not the voice of the oppressor. KJRV — Job 3:18
19 The small and great are there; and the servant is free from his master. KJRV — Job 3:19
20 Wherefore is light given to him that is in misery, and life unto the bitter in soul; KJRV — Job 3:20
21 Which long for death, but it cometh not; and dig for it more than for hid treasures; KJRV — Job 3:21
22 Which rejoice exceedingly, and are glad, when they can find the grave? KJRV — Job 3:22
23 Why is light given to a man whose way is hid, and whom God hath hedged in? KJRV — Job 3:23
24 For my sighing cometh before I eat, and my roarings are poured out like the waters. KJRV — Job 3:24
25 For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of is come unto me. KJRV — Job 3:25
26 I was not in safety, neither had I rest, neither was I quiet; yet trouble came. KJRV — Job 3:26
