Job 3:3 Context
1After this, opened Iob his mouth, and cursed his day. 2And Iob spake, and said, 3Let the day perish, wherein I was borne, and the night in which it was said, There is a man-childe conceiued. 4Let that day bee darkenesse, let not God regard it from aboue, neither let the light shine vpon it. 5Let darkenes and the shadowe of death staine it, let a cloud dwell vpon it, let the blacknes of the day terrifie it.
