Job 3:3-5

EasyEnglish Bible

³ ‘Forget the day of my birth.
    Forget the night when a son was born to my parents.
⁴ That day should be completely dark,
    with no light to shine on it!
God in heaven above should not even think about it.
⁵ That day should remain in a dark shadow.
    Clouds should cover it so that everywhere is black.
