Job 3:5-7
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
5 May darkness and gloom claim it,
clouds settle upon it,
blackness of day[a] affright it!
6 May obscurity seize that night;
may it not be counted among the days of the year,
nor enter into the number of the months!
7 May that night be barren;
let no joyful outcry greet it!
Footnotes
- 3:5 Blackness of day: that is, an eclipse.
