Job 3:5 in Context — Job 3
3 Pereça o dia em que nasci, e a noite [em que] se disse: Um homem foi concebido.
4 Torne-se aquele dia em trevas; Deus não lhe dê atenção desde acima, nem claridade brilhe sobre ele.
5 Reivindiquem-no para si trevas e sombra de morte; nuvens habitem sobre ele; a escuridão do dia o espante.
6 Tome a escuridão aquela noite; não seja contada entre os dias do ano, nem faça parte do número dos meses.
7 Ah se aquela noite fosse solitária, e música de alegria não viesse a ela!
