Selected verse
“Let the day perish in which I was born,
the night which said, ‘There is a boy conceived.’
4
Let that day be darkness.
Don’t let God from above seek for it,
neither let the light shine on it.
5
Let darkness and the shadow of death claim it for their own.
Let a cloud dwell on it.
Let all that makes the day black terrify it.
6

Let it not rejoice among the days of the year.
Let it not come into the number of the months.
