3
Let the day perish on which I was born, and the night in which it was said, There is a male child conceived.
4
Let that day be darkness; let not God regard it from above, neither let the light shine upon it.
5
Let darkness and the shadow of death stain it; let a cloud dwell upon it; let the blackness of the day terrify it.
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.
7
Lo, let that night be solitary, let no joyful voice come into it.
8
Let them curse it that curse the day, who are ready to arouse leviathan.
9
Let the stars of its twilight be dark; let it look for light, but have none; neither let it see the dawning of the day:
10
Because it shut not up the doors of my mother’s womb, nor hid sorrow from my eyes.
