Lamentos de Job
3 Después abrió Job su boca y maldijo el día de su nacimiento[a]. 2 Y Job dijo[b]:
3 (A)Perezca el día en que yo nací,
y la noche que dijo: «Un varón ha sido concebido».
4 Sea ese día tinieblas,
no lo tome en cuenta Dios desde lo alto,
ni resplandezca sobre él la luz.
5 Apodérense de él tinieblas y densa oscuridad(B),
pósese sobre él una nube,
llénelo de terror la negrura del día.
6 Y en cuanto a aquella noche, apodérense de ella las tinieblas;
que no se alegre entre los días del año,
ni se cuente en el número de los meses.
7 He aquí, sea estéril aquella noche,
no entren en ella gritos de júbilo.
8 Maldíganla los que maldicen el día,
los que están listos[c] para despertar a Leviatán[d](C).
9 Oscurézcanse las estrellas de su alba;
que espere la luz mas no la tenga,
que tampoco vea el rayar[e] de la aurora;
10 porque no cerró las puertas[f] del vientre de mi madre,
ni escondió la aflicción de mis ojos.
11 ¿Por qué no morí yo al nacer[g],
o expiré al salir del vientre(D)?
12 ¿Por qué me recibieron las rodillas,
y para qué los pechos que me dieron de mamar?
13 Porque ahora yo yacería tranquilo;
dormiría, y entonces tendría descanso(E)
14 con los reyes(F) y los consejeros(G) de la tierra,
que reedificaron ruinas(H) para sí;
15 o con príncipes(I) que tenían oro,
que llenaban sus casas de plata(J).
16 O como aborto desechado[h], yo no existiría,
como los niños que nunca vieron la luz.
17 Allí los impíos cesan de airarse,
y allí reposan los cansados[i](K).
18 Juntos reposan los prisioneros;
no oyen la voz del capataz.
19 Allí están los pequeños y los grandes,
y el esclavo es libre de su señor.
20 ¿Por qué se da luz al que sufre(L),
y vida al amargado de alma;
21 a los que ansían[j] la muerte, pero no llega[k](M),
y cavan por ella más que por tesoros(N);
22 que se alegran sobremanera,
y se regocijan cuando encuentran el sepulcro?
23 ¿Por qué dar luz al hombre cuyo camino está escondido(O),
y a quien Dios ha cercado(P)?
24 Porque al ver mi alimento(Q) salen mis gemidos,
y mis clamores se derraman como agua(R).
25 Pues lo que temo[l] viene sobre mí,
y lo que me aterroriza me sucede(S).
26 No tengo reposo ni estoy tranquilo,
no descanso, sino que me viene turbación(T).

3 After this Job opened his mouth, and cursed his day,
2 And he said:
3 Let the day perish wherein I was born, and the night in which it was said: A man child is conceived.
4 Let that day be turned into darkness, let not God regard it from above, and let not the light shine upon it.
5 Let darkness, and the shadow of death cover it, let a mist overspread it, and let it be wrapped up in bitterness.
6 Let a darksome whirlwind seize upon that night, let it not be counted in the days of the year, nor numbered in the months.
7 Let that night be solitary, and not worthy of praise.
8 Let them curse it who curse the day. who are ready to raise up a leviathan:
9 Let the stars be darkened with the mist thereof: let it expect light and not see it, nor the rising of the dawning of the day:
10 Because it shut not up the doors of the womb that bore me, nor took away evils from my eyes.
11 Why did I not die in the womb, why did I not perish when I came out of the belly?
12 Why received upon the knees? why suckled at the breasts?
13 For now I should have been asleep and still, and should have rest in my sleep.
14 With kings and consuls of the earth, who build themselves solitudes:
15 Or with princes, that possess gold, and All their houses with silver:
16 Or as a hidden untimely birth I should not be, or as they that being conceived have not seen the light.
17 There the wicked cease from tumult, and there the wearied in strength are at rest.
18 And they sometime bound together without disquiet, have not heard the voice of the oppressor.
19 The small and great are there, and the servant is free from his master.
20 Why is light given to him that is in misery, and life to them that are in bitterness of soul?
21 That look for death, and it cometh not, as they that dig for a treasure:
22 And they rejoice exceedingly when they have found the grave.
23 To a man whose way is hidden, and God hath surrounded him with darkness?
24 Before I eat I sigh: and as overflowing waters, so is my roaring:
25 For the fear which I feared hath come upon me: and that which I was afraid of, hath befallen me.
26 Have I not dissembled? have I not kept silence? have I not been quiet? and indignation is come upon me.

Job Speaks
3 After this, Job opened his mouth and cursed the day of his birth.(A) 2 He said:
3 “May the day of my birth perish,
and the night that said, ‘A boy is conceived!’(B)
4 That day—may it turn to darkness;
may God above not care about it;
may no light shine on it.
5 May gloom and utter darkness(C) claim it once more;
may a cloud settle over it;
may blackness overwhelm it.
6 That night—may thick darkness(D) seize it;
may it not be included among the days of the year
nor be entered in any of the months.
7 May that night be barren;
may no shout of joy(E) be heard in it.
8 May those who curse days[a] curse that day,(F)
those who are ready to rouse Leviathan.(G)
9 May its morning stars become dark;
may it wait for daylight in vain
and not see the first rays of dawn,(H)
10 for it did not shut the doors of the womb on me
to hide trouble from my eyes.
11 “Why did I not perish at birth,
and die as I came from the womb?(I)
12 Why were there knees to receive me(J)
and breasts that I might be nursed?
13 For now I would be lying down(K) in peace;
I would be asleep and at rest(L)
14 with kings and rulers of the earth,(M)
who built for themselves places now lying in ruins,(N)
15 with princes(O) who had gold,
who filled their houses with silver.(P)
16 Or why was I not hidden away in the ground like a stillborn child,(Q)
like an infant who never saw the light of day?(R)
17 There the wicked cease from turmoil,(S)
and there the weary are at rest.(T)
18 Captives(U) also enjoy their ease;
they no longer hear the slave driver’s(V) shout.(W)
19 The small and the great are there,(X)
and the slaves are freed from their owners.
20 “Why is light given to those in misery,
and life to the bitter of soul,(Y)
21 to those who long for death that does not come,(Z)
who search for it more than for hidden treasure,(AA)
22 who are filled with gladness
and rejoice when they reach the grave?(AB)
23 Why is life given to a man
whose way is hidden,(AC)
whom God has hedged in?(AD)
24 For sighing(AE) has become my daily food;(AF)
my groans(AG) pour out like water.(AH)
25 What I feared has come upon me;
what I dreaded(AI) has happened to me.(AJ)
26 I have no peace,(AK) no quietness;
I have no rest,(AL) but only turmoil.”(AM)

约伯记 3
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
约伯记 3
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
约伯咒诅自己的生日
3 后来，约伯开口咒诅自己的生日。 2 约伯说：
3 “愿我生的那日泯灭，
人说怀男胎的那夜灭没。
4 愿那日变成黑暗，
愿 神不从上面眷顾，
愿光明不照耀在其上。
5 愿黑暗与死荫索讨那日，
愿密云停留在上面，
愿白天的昏黑惊吓它。
6 愿那夜被幽暗夺去，
不让它连在平日之中，列入月数之内。
7 愿那夜没有生育，
也没有欢乐的声音。
8 那些咒诅日子、善于惹动海怪的，
愿他们咒诅那夜。
9 愿那夜黎明的星星变成黑暗，
愿那夜等候发光却不亮，见不到清晨的曙光。
10 因为那夜没有把我母胎的门关闭，
也没有把苦难隐藏，使我看不见。
切愿夭折
11 我为甚么不一离母胎就死去？
我为甚么不一出母腹就断气？
12 为甚么有膝承接我？
为甚么有乳哺养我？
13 不然，我早已躺下安息，
14 与世上那些为自己建造陵墓的君王和谋士同睡，
15 或与那些拥有黄金，房屋装满银子的王侯同眠。
16 我为甚么不像暗中流产的胎，未见天日的婴孩，归于无有呢？
17 在那里，恶人止息搅扰，
筋疲力尽的得安息；
18 被囚的同享安宁；
听不见督工的声音；
19 老少尊卑都在那里，
奴仆脱离主人的辖制。
厌恶生存
20 为甚么有光明赐给劳碌的人，
有生命赐给苦命的人呢？
21 他们想死却死不了，找死胜于找宝藏；
22 他们找到坟墓就高兴，非常欢喜快乐。
23 为甚么有生命赐给前途茫茫，又被 神四面围困的人呢？
24 我以叹息代替食物，
我唉哼的声音如水涌出。
25 我所惧怕的临到我，
我所惊恐的向我而来。
26 我不得安逸，不得安静，
也不得安息，却有搅扰来到。”
