Let that day be turned into darkness, let not God regard it from above, and let not the light shine upon it.
Job 3:4 · Douay-Rheims Bible (Challoner)
Let that day be darkness; let not God regard it from above, neither let the light shine upon it.
If only that day had turned to darkness! May God above disregard it; may no light shine upon it.
Let that day be darkness. Don’t let God from above seek for it, neither let the light shine on it.

1 After this, Job opened his mouth, and cursed his day,
2 And he said:
3 Let the day perish wherein I was born, and the night in which it was said: A man child is conceived.
4 Let that day be turned into darkness, let not God regard it from above, and let not the light shine upon it.
5 Let darkness, and the shadow of death, cover it, let a mist overspread it, and let it be wrapped up in bitterness.
6 Let a darksome whirlwind seize upon that night, let it not be counted in the days of the year, nor numbered in the months.
7 Let that night be solitary, and not worthy of praise.
