Cursed {be} the day wherein I was born: let not the day wherein my mother bare me be blessed.
Wherefore then hast thou brought me forth out of the womb? Oh that I had given up the ghost, and no eye had seen me!
Woe is me, my mother, that thou hast borne me a man of strife and a man of contention to the whole earth! I have neither lent on usury, nor men have lent to me on usury; {yet} every one of them doth curse me.
Cursed {be} the day wherein I was born: let not the day wherein my mother bare me be blessed.
Ye mountains of Gilboa, {let there be} no dew, neither {let there be} rain, upon you, nor fields of offerings: for there the shield of the mighty is vilely cast away, the shield of Saul, {as though he had} not {been} anointed with oil.
Do ye imagine to reprove words, and the speeches of one that is desperate, {which are} as wind?
After this opened Job his mouth, and cursed his day.
