(3) Let the day perish in which I was born, and that night in which they said, Behold a man-child!	(3) Ἀπόλοιτο ἡ ἡµέρα, ἐν ᾗ ἐγεννήθην, καὶ ἡ νύξ, ἐν ᾗ εἶπαν Ἰδοὺ ἄρσεν.

(4) Let that night be darkness, and let not the Lord regard it from above, neither let light come upon it.	(4) ἡ ἡµέρα ἐκείνη εἴη σκότος, καὶ µὴ ἀναζητήσαι αὐτὴν ὁ κύριος ἄνωθεν, µηδὲ ἔλθοι εἰς αὐτὴν φέγγος·

(6) let that day and night be cursed, let darkness carry them away; let it not come into the days of the year, neither let it be numbered with the days of the months.	(6) καταραθείη ἡ ἡµέρα καὶ ἡ νὺξ ἐκείνη, ἀπενέγκαιτο αὐτὴν σκότος· µὴ εἴη εἰς ἡµέρας ἐνιαυτοῦ µηδὲ ἀριθµηθείη εἰς ἡµέρας µηνῶν·

(7) But let that night be pain, and let not mirth come upon it, nor joy.	(7) ἀλλὰ ἡ νὺξ ἐκείνη εἴη ὀδύνη, καὶ µὴ ἔλθοι ἐπ’ αὐτὴν εὐφροσύνη µηδὲ χαρµονή·

(8) But let him that curses that day curse it, even he that is ready to attack the great whale.

(9) Let the stars of that night be darkened; let it remain dark, and not come into light; and let it not see the morning star arise:	(9) σκοτωθείη τὰ ἄστρα τῆς νυκτὸς ἐκείνης, ὑποµείναι καὶ εἰς φωτισµὸν µὴ ἔλθοι καὶ µὴ ἴδοι ἑωσφόρον ἀνατέλλοντα,

(10) because it shut not up the gates of my mother’s womb, for so it would have removed sorrow from my eyes.

(11) For why died I not in the belly? and why did I not come forth from the womb and die immediately?	(11) διὰ τί γὰρ ἐν κοιλίᾳ οὐκ ἐτελεύτησα, ἐκ γαστρὸς δὲ ἐξῆλθον καὶ οὐκ εὐθὺς ἀπωλόµην;

(15) or with rulers, whose gold was abundant, who filled their houses with silver:	(15) ἢ µετὰ ἀρχόντων, ὧν πολὺς ὁ χρυσός, οἳ ἔπλησαν τοὺς οἴκους αὐτῶν ἀργυρίου,

(16) or I should have been as an untimely birth proceeding from his mother’s womb, or as infants who never saw light.

(17) There the ungodly have burnt out the fury of rage; there the wearied in body rest.	(17) ἐκεῖ ἀσεβεῖς ἐξέκαυσαν θυµὸν ὀργῆς, ἐκεῖ ἀνεπαύσαντο κατάκοποι τῷ σώµατι·

(20) For why is light given to those who are in bitterness, and life to those souls which are in griefs?	(20) ἵνα τί γὰρ δέδοται τοῖς ἐν πικρίᾳ φῶς, ζωὴ δὲ ταῖς ἐν ὀδύναις ψυχαῖς;
