If only darkness had taken that night away! May it not appear among the days of the year; may it never be entered in any of the months.
In context
4 If only that day had turned to darkness! May God above disregard it; may no light shine upon it.
5 May darkness and gloom reclaim it, and a cloud settle over it; may the blackness of the day overwhelm it.
6 If only darkness had taken that night away! May it not appear among the days of the year; may it never be entered in any of the months.
