New American Standard Bible (NASB)
Job 2
12 When they lifted up their eyes at a distance and did not recognize him, they raised their voices and wept. And each of them tore his robe and they threw dust over their heads toward the sky.
13 Then they sat down on the ground with him for seven days and seven nights with no one speaking a word to him, for they saw that his pain was very great.
Job 3
1 Afterward Job opened his mouth and cursed the day of his birth.
2 And Job said,
3 "Let the day perish on which I was to be born, And the night which said, ’A boy is conceived.’
4 "May that day be darkness; Let not God above care for it, Nor light shine on it.
5 "Let darkness and black gloom claim it; Let a cloud settle on it; Let the blackness of the day terrify it.
6 "As for that night, let darkness seize it; Let it not rejoice among the days of the year; Let it not come into the number of the months.
7 "Behold, let that night be barren; Let no joyful shout enter it.
8 "Let those curse it who curse the day, Who are prepared to rouse Leviathan.
9 "Let the stars of its twilight be darkened; Let it wait for light but have none, And let it not see the breaking dawn;
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
