Job 3:9

Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

May its morning stars grow dark; may it wait in vain for daylight; may it not see the breaking of dawn.

In context

7 Behold, may that night be barren; may no joyful voice come into it.

8 May it be cursed by those who curse the day — those prepared to rouse Leviathan.

9 May its morning stars grow dark; may it wait in vain for daylight; may it not see the breaking of dawn.

10 For that night did not shut the doors of the womb to hide the sorrow from my eyes.

11 Why did I not perish at birth; why did I not die as I came from the womb?
