Job - Chapter: 3


3:1	After this opened Job his mouth, and cursed his day.
3:2	And Job spake, and said,
3:3	Let the day perish wherein I was born, and the night in which it was said, There is a man child conceived.
3:4	Let that day be darkness; let not God regard it from above, neither let the light shine upon it.
3:5	Let darkness and the shadow of death stain it; let a cloud dwell upon it; let the blackness of the day terrify it.
3:6	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.
3:7	Lo, let that night be solitary, let no joyful voice come therein.
3:8	Let them curse it that curse the day, who are ready to raise up their mourning.
3:9	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:
3:10	Because it shut not up the doors of my mother's womb, nor hid sorrow from mine eyes.
3:11	Why died I not from the womb? why did I not give up the ghost when I came out of the belly?
3:12	Why did the knees prevent me? or why the breasts that I should suck?
3:13	For now should I have lain still and been quiet, I should have slept: then had I been at rest,
3:14	With kings and counsellors of the earth, which built desolate places for themselves;
3:15	Or with princes that had gold, who filled their houses with silver:
3:16	Or as an hidden untimely birth I had not been; as infants which never saw light.
3:17	There the wicked cease from troubling; and there the weary be at rest.
3:18	There the prisoners rest together; they hear not the voice of the oppressor.
3:19	The small and great are there; and the servant is free from his master.
3:20	Wherefore is light given to him that is in misery, and life unto the bitter in soul;
3:21	Which long for death, but it cometh not; and dig for it more than for hid treasures;
3:22	Which rejoice exceedingly, and are glad, when they can find the grave?
3:23	Why is light given to a man whose way is hid, and whom God hath hedged in?
3:24	For my sighing cometh before I eat, and my roarings are poured out like the waters.
3:25	For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of is come unto me.
3:26	I was not in safety, neither had I rest, neither was I quiet; yet trouble came.


3:1	אחרי כן פתח איוב את פיהו ויקלל את יומו׃
3:2	ויען איוב ויאמר׃
3:3	יאבד יום אולד בו והלילה אמר הרה גבר׃
3:4	היום ההוא יהי חשׁך אל ידרשׁהו אלוה ממעל ואל תופע עליו נהרה׃
3:5	יגאלהו חשׁך וצלמות תשׁכן עליו עננה יבעתהו כמרירי יום׃
3:6	הלילה ההוא יקחהו אפל אל יחד בימי שׁנה במספר ירחים אל יבא׃
3:7	הנה הלילה ההוא יהי גלמוד אל תבא רננה׃
3:8	יקבהו אררי יום העתידים ערר לויתן׃
3:9	יחשׁכו כוכבי נשׁפו יקו לאור ואין ואל יראה בעפעפי שׁחר׃
3:10	כי לא סגר דלתי בטני ויסתר עמל מעיני׃
3:11	למה לא מרחם אמות מבטן יצאתי ואגוע׃
3:12	מדוע קדמוני ברכים ומה שׁדים כי אינק׃
3:13	כי עתה שׁכבתי ואשׁקוט ישׁנתי אז ינוח׃
3:14	עם מלכים ויעצי ארץ הבנים חרבות׃
3:15	או עם שׂרים זהב להם הממלאים בתיהם כסף׃
3:16	או כנפל טמון לא אהיה כעללים לא ראו אור׃
3:17	שׁם רשׁעים חדלו רגז ושׁם ינוחו יגיעי כח׃
3:18	יחד אסירים שׁאננו לא שׁמעו קול נגשׂ׃
3:19	קטן וגדול שׁם הוא ועבד חפשׁי מאדניו׃
3:20	למה יתן לעמל אור וחיים למרי נפשׁ׃
3:21	המחכים למות ואיננו ויחפרהו ממטמונים׃
3:22	השׂמחים אלי גיל ישׂישׂו כי ימצאו קבר׃
3:23	לגבר אשׁר דרכו נסתרה ויסך אלוה בעדו׃
3:24	כי לפני לחמי אנחתי תבא ויתכו כמים שׁאגתי׃
3:25	כי פחד פחדתי ויאתיני ואשׁר יגרתי יבא׃
3:26	לא שׁלותי ולא שׁקטתי ולא נחתי ויבא רגז׃


3:1	After this hath Job opened his mouth, and revileth his day.
3:2	And Job answereth and saith: --
3:3	Let the day perish in which I am born, And the night that hath said: `A man-child hath been conceived.'
3:4	That day -- let it be darkness, Let not God require it from above, Nor let light shine upon it.
3:5	Let darkness and death-shade redeem it, Let a cloud tabernacle upon it, Let them terrify it as the most bitter of days.
3:6	That night -- let thick darkness take it, Let it not be united to days of the year, Into the number of months let it not come.
3:7	Lo! that night -- let it be gloomy, Let no singing come into it.
3:8	Let the cursers of day mark it, Who are ready to wake up Leviathan.
3:9	Let the stars of its twilight be dark, Let it wait for light, and there is none, And let it not look on the eyelids of the dawn.
3:10	Because it hath not shut the doors Of the womb that was mine! And hide misery from mine eyes.
3:11	Why from the womb do I not die? From the belly I have come forth and gasp!
3:12	Wherefore have knees been before me? And what `are' breasts, that I suck?
3:13	For now, I have lain down, and am quiet, I have slept -- then there is rest to me,
3:14	With kings and counsellors of earth, These building wastes for themselves.
3:15	Or with princes -- they have gold, They are filling their houses `with' silver.
3:16	(Or as a hidden abortion I am not, As infants -- they have not seen light.)
3:17	There the wicked have ceased troubling, And there rest do the wearied in power.
3:18	Together prisoners have been at ease, They have not heard the voice of an exactor,
3:19	Small and great `are' there the same. And a servant `is' free from his lord.
3:20	Why giveth He to the miserable light, and life to the bitter soul?
3:21	Who are waiting for death, and it is not, And they seek it above hid treasures.
3:22	Who are glad -- unto joy, They rejoice when they find a grave.
3:23	To a man whose way hath been hidden, And whom God doth shut up?
3:24	For before my food, my sighing cometh, And poured out as waters `are' my roarings.
3:25	For a fear I feared and it meeteth me, And what I was afraid of doth come to me.
3:26	I was not safe -- nor was I quiet -- Nor was I at rest -- and trouble cometh!
