Job 3:5-7

Modern English Version

⁵ Let darkness and the shadow of death claim it;
    let a cloud settle on it;
    let the blackness of the day terrify it.
⁶ As for that night, let darkness capture it;
    let it not rejoice among the days of the year;
    let it not come into the number of the months.
⁷ Yes, as for that night, let it be barren!
    Let no joyful cry come into it!
