Iob 3

1 Job curseth the day and services of his birth. 13 The ease of death. 20 He complaineth of life, because of his anguish.

 3:1 ¶ After 310 this, x3651 opened 6605 z8804 Iob 347 x853 his mouth, 6310 and cursed 7043 z8762 x853 his day. 3117

 3:2 And Iob 347 spake, 6030 z8799 and said, 559 z8799

 3:3 Let the day 3117 perish, 6 z8799 wherein I was borne, 3205 z8735 and the night 3915 [in which] it was said, 559 z8804 There is a man-childe 1397 conceiued. 2029 z8795

 3:4 Let that x1931 day 3117 bee x1961 darkenesse, 2822 let not x408 God 433 regard 1875 z8799 it from aboue, 4605 x4480 neither x408 let the light 5105 shine 3313 z8686 vpon x5921 it.

 3:5 Let darkenes 2822 and the shadowe of death 6757 staine 1350 z8799 it, let a cloud 6053 dwell 7931 z8799 vpon x5921 it, let the blacknes 3650 of the day 3117 terrifie 1204 z8762 it.

 3:6 As for that x1931 night, 3915 let darkenesse 652 seaze y3947 z8799 vpon x3947 it, let it not x408 be ioyned 2302 z8799 vnto the dayes 3117 of the yeere, 8141 let it not x408 come 935 z8799 into the number 4557 of the moneths. 3391

 3:7 Loe, x2009 let that x1931 night 3915 be x1961 solitarie, 1565 let no x408 ioyfull voice 7445 come 935 z8799 therein.

 3:8 Let them curse 5344 z8799 it that curse 779 z8802 the day, 3117 who are ready 6264 to raise vp 5782 z8788 their mourning. 3882

 3:9 Let the starres 3556 of the twilight 5399 thereof be darke, 2821 z8799 let it looke 6960 z8762 for light, 216 but [haue] none, x369 neither x408 let it see 7200 z8799 the dawning 6079 of the day: 7837

 3:10 Because x3588 it shut not vp 5462 z8804 x3808 the doores 1817 of my [mothers] wombe, 990 nor hid 5641 z8686 sorrowe 5999 from mine eyes. 5869 x4480

 3:11 Why x4100 died 4191 z8799 I not x3808 from the wombe? 7358 x4480 [why] did I [not] giue vp the ghost 1478 z8799 when I came out 3318 z8804 of the bellie? 990 x4480

 3:12 Why x4069 did the knees 1290 preuent 6923 z8765 mee? or why x4100 the breasts, 7699 that x3588 I should sucke? 3243 z8799

 3:13 For x3588 now x6258 should I haue lien still 7901 z8804 and beene quiet, 8252 z8799 I should haue slept; 3462 z8804 then x227 had I bene at rest, 5117 z8799

 3:14 With x5973 Kings 4428 and counsellers 3289 z8802 of the earth, 776 which built 1129 z8802 desolate places 2723 for themselues,

 3:15 Or x176 with x5973 Princes 8269 that [had] golde, 2091 who filled 4390 z8764 their houses 1004 with siluer: 3701

 3:16 Or x176 as an hidden 2934 z8803 vntimely birth, 5309 I had not x3808 bene; x1961 as infants 5768 [which] neuer x3808 saw 7200 z8804 light. 216

 3:17 There x8033 the wicked 7563 cease 2308 z8804 [from] troubling: 7267 and there x8033 the wearie 3019 3581 be at rest. 5117 z8799

 3:18 [There] the prisoners 615 rest 7599 z8768 together, 3162 they heare 8085 z8804 not x3808 the voice 6963 of the oppressour. 5065 z8802

 3:19 The small 6996 and great 1419 are there, x8033 and the seruant 5650 [is] free 2670 from his master. 113 x4480

 3:20 Wherefore x4100 is light 216 giuen 5414 z8799 to him that is in misery, 6001 and life 2416 vnto the bitter 4751 [in] soule? 5315

 3:21 Which long 2442 z8764 for death, 4194 but it [commeth] not, x369 and dig 2658 z8799 for it more then for hid treasures: 4301 x4480

 3:22 Which reioice 8056 exceedingly, 1524 x413 [and] are glad 7797 z8799 when x3588 they can finde 4672 z8799 the graue? 6913

 3:23 [Why is light giuen] to a man, 1397 whose x834 way 1870 is hid, 5641 z8738 and whom x1157 God 433 hath hedged in? 5526 z8686

 3:24 For x3588 my sighing 585 commeth 935 z8799 before 6440 I eate, 3899 and my roarings 7581 are powred out 5413 z8799 like the waters. 4325

 3:25 For x3588 the thing which I greatly y6343 feared 6342 z8804 x6343 is come y857 z8799 vpon x857 me, and that which x834 I was afraid y3025 z8804 of, x3025 is come 935 z8799 vnto me.

 3:26 I was not x3808 in safetie, 7951 z8804 neither x3808 had I rest, 8252 z8804 neither x3808 was I quiet: 5117 z8804 yet trouble 7267 came. 935 z8799
