Job 3:9 in Context — Job 3

7 Ah se aquela noite fosse solitária, e música de alegria não viesse a ela!

8 Amaldiçoem-na os que amaldiçoam o dia, os que se preparam para levantar seu pranto.

9 Escureçam-se as estrelas de sua manhã; espere a luz, e não venha, e as pálpebras não vejam o amanhecer;

10 Pois não fechou as portas do ventre onde eu estava, nem escondeu de meus olhos o sofrimento.

11 Por que eu não morri desde a madre, ou perdi a vida ao sair do ventre?
