3：1 此后，約伯開口咒詛自己的生日，說，After this opened Job his mouth， and cursed his day.

　　3：2 愿我生的那日，And Job spake， and said，

　　3：3 *和說懷了男胎的那夜都滅沒。

　　Let the day perish wherein I was born， and the night in which it was said， There is a man child conceived.

　　3：4 愿那日變為黑暗。愿神不從上面尋梢它。愿亮光不照于其上。

　　Let that day be darkness； let not God regard it from above， neither let the light shine upon it.

　　3：5 愿黑暗和死蔭索取那日。愿密云停在其上。愿日蝕恐嚇它。

　　Let darkness and the shadow of death stain it； let a cloud dwell upon it； let the blackness of the day terrify it.

　　3：6 愿那夜被幽暗奪取，不在年中的日子同樂，也不入月中的數目。

　　As for that night， let darkness seize upon it； let it not be joined unto the days of the year， let it not come into the number of the months.

　　3：7 愿那夜沒有生育，其間也沒有歡樂的聲音。

　　Lo， let that night be solitary， let no joyful voice come therein.

　　3：8 愿那咒詛日子且能惹動鱷魚的，咒詛那夜。

　　Let them curse it that curse the day， who are ready to raise up their mourning.

　　3：9 愿那夜黎明的星宿變為黑暗，盼亮卻不亮，也不見早晨的光線（光線原文作眼皮）。

　　Let the stars of the twilight thereof be dark； let it look for light， but have none； neither let it see the dawning of the day：

　　3：10 因沒有把懷我胎的門關閉，也沒有將患難對我的眼隱藏。

　　Because it shut not up the doors of my mother's womb， nor hid sorrow from mine eyes.

　　3：11 我為何不出母胎而死。為何不出母腹絕氣。

　　Why died I not from the womb？ why did I not give up the ghost when I came out of the belly？

　　3：12 為何有膝接收我。為何有奶哺養我。

　　Why did the knees prevent me？ or why the breasts that I should suck？

　　3：13 不然，我就早已躺臥安睡。

　　For now should I have lain still and been quiet， I should have slept： then had I been at rest，

　　3：14 和地上為自己重造荒邱的君王，謀士。

　　With kings and counsellors of the earth， which built desolate places for themselves；

　　3：15 或與有金子，將銀子裝滿了房屋的王子一同安息。

　　Or with princes that had gold， who filled their houses with silver：

　　3：16 或像隱而未現，不到期而落的胎，歸于無有，如同未見光的嬰孩。

　　Or as an hidden untimely birth I had not been； as infants which never saw light.

　　3：17 在那里惡人止息攪擾，困乏人得享安息。

　　There the wicked cease from troubling； and there the weary be at rest.

　　3：18 被囚的人同得安逸，不聽見督工的聲音。

　　There the prisoners rest together； they hear not the voice of the oppressor.

　　3：19 大小都在那里。奴仆脫離主人的轄制。

　　The small and great are there； and the servant is free from his master.

　　3：20 受患難的人，為何有光賜給他呢。心中愁苦的人，為何有生命賜給他呢。

　　Wherefore is light given to him that is in misery， and life unto the bitter in soul；

　　3：21 他們切望死，卻不得死。求死，勝于求隱藏的珍寶。

　　Which long for death， but it cometh not； and dig for it more than for hid treasures；

　　3：22 他們尋見墳墓就快樂，極其歡喜。

　　Which rejoice exceedingly， and are glad， when they can find the grave？

　　3：23 人的道路既然遮隱，神又把他四面圍困，為何有光賜給他呢。

　　Why is light given to a man whose way is hid， and whom God hath hedged in？

　　3：24 我未曾吃飯就發出嘆息。我唉哼的聲音涌出如水。

　　For my sighing cometh before I eat， and my roarings are poured out like the waters.

　　3：25 因我所恐懼的臨到我身，我所懼怕的迎我而來。

　　For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me， and that which I was afraid of is come unto me.

　　3：26 我不得安逸，不得平靜，也不得安息，卻有患難來到。

　　I was not in safety， neither had I rest， neither was I quiet； yet trouble came.
