Let the cursers of day mark it, Who are ready to wake up Leviathan.

Let the stars of its twilight be dark, Let it wait for light, and there is none, And let it not look on the eyelids of the dawn.

10 Because it hath not shut the doors Of the womb that was mine! And hide misery from mine eyes.

May those who curse days[a] curse that day,(A)
    those who are ready to rouse Leviathan.(B)

    may it wait for daylight in vain
    and not see the first rays of dawn,(C)
10 for it did not shut the doors of the womb on me
    to hide trouble from my eyes.
