Job 3:7-9

Expanded Bible

⁷ Let that night be ·empty [barren],
    with no shout of joy ·to be heard [^Lentering it].
⁸ Let those who curse ·days [or the Sea; ^Ca symbol of chaos] curse that day [^CBalaam (Num. 22–24) is an example of a professional curser].
    Let them prepare to wake up the sea monster Leviathan [^Ca creature in ancient Near Eastern texts that represents chaos; 41:1, 12; Ps. 74:14; 104:26; Is. 27:1].
⁹ Let that day’s morning stars ·never appear [^Lbecome dark];
    let it ·wait [hope] for daylight that never comes.
    Don’t let it see the first light of dawn,
