Job 3:16

New American Standard Bible

¹⁶Or like a miscarriage which is ^[a]hidden, I would not exist,
As infants that never saw light.

Job 3:16

New International Version

¹⁶Or why was I not hidden away in the ground like a stillborn child,^(A)
like an infant who never saw the light of day?^(B)

³But ^(A)better off than both of them is the one who has never existed, who has never seen the evil activity that is done under the sun.

³But better than both
is the one who has never been born,^(A)
who has not seen the evil
that is done under the sun.^(B)
