¹ After this Job opened his mouth, and cursed the day of his birth.

¹⁴ Cursed be the day in which I was born: don't let the day in which my mother bore me be blessed.

¹⁵ Cursed be the man who brought news to my father, saying, A man-child is born to you; making him very glad.

² I was mute with silence. I held my peace, even from good. My sorrow was stirred.

³ My heart was hot within me. While I meditated, the fire burned: I spoke with my tongue:

³³ Because they were rebellious against his spirit, He spoke rashly with his lips.

²² In all this, Job did not sin, nor charge God with wrongdoing.

⁵ But put forth your hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will renounce you to your face."

⁹ Then his wife said to him, "Do you still maintain your integrity? Renounce God, and die."

¹⁰ But he said to her, "You speak as one of the foolish women would speak. What? Shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil?" In all this Job didn't sin with his lips.

³ "Let the day perish in which I was born, The night which said, 'There is a man-child conceived.'

¹⁶ Therefore Job opens his mouth with empty talk, And he multiplies words without knowledge."
