³ “^(A)Let the day perish on which I was to be born,
And the night which said, ‘A man is conceived.’
⁴ May that day be darkness;
Let not God seek it from above,
Nor light shine on it.
⁵ Let ^(B)darkness and shadow of death redeem it;
Let a cloud dwell upon it;
Let the blackness of the day terrify it.
⁶ As for that night, let thick darkness take it;
Let it not rejoice among the days of the year;
Let it not come into the number of the months.

^10 (A)Woe to me, my mother, that you have borne me
As a ^(B)man of strife and a man of contention to all the land!
I have not ^(C)lent, nor have men lent money to me,
Yet everyone curses me.
