Rare homographs can still be misread; verify against the original and a specialist lexicon where precision matters.

3:1

μετὰ τοῦτο ἤνοιξεν Ιωβ τὸ στόμα αὐτοῦ

After this Job opened his mouth

此後，約伯開口，

3:2

καὶ κατηράσατο τὴν ἡμέραν αὐτοῦ λέγων

and cursed his day, saying:

咒詛自己的日子，說：

3:3

ἀπόλοιτο ἡ ἡμέρα ἐν ᾗ ἐγεννήθην καὶ ἡ νύξ ἐν ᾗ εἶπαν ἰδοὺ ἄρσεν

"Let the day perish on which I was born, and the night in which they said, 'Behold, a male child.'

願我生的那日滅沒，願人說「看哪，是個男的」的那夜也滅沒。

3:4

ἡ ἡμέρα ἐκείνη εἴη σκότος καὶ μὴ ἀναζητήσαι αὐτὴν ὁ κύριος ἄνωθεν μηδὲ ἔλθοι εἰς αὐτὴν φέγγος

Let that day be darkness, and let the Lord from above not seek it out, nor let brightness come upon it.

願那日變為黑暗，願主不從上面尋找它，也不要有光輝臨到它。

3:5

ἐκλάβοι δὲ αὐτὴν σκότος καὶ σκιὰ θανάτου ἐπέλθοι ἐπ’ αὐτὴν γνόφος

Let darkness and the shadow of death seize it; let gloom come upon it.

願黑暗和死蔭奪取它，願幽暗臨到它。

3:6

καταραθείη ἡ ἡμέρα καὶ ἡ νὺξ ἐκείνη ἀπενέγκαιτο αὐτὴν σκότος μὴ εἴη εἰς ἡμέρας ἐνιαυτοῦ μηδὲ ἀριθμηθείη εἰς ἡμέρας μηνῶν

Let that day be cursed, and let darkness carry off that night; let it not be among the days of the year, nor be numbered among the days of the months.

願那日受咒詛；至於那夜，願黑暗把它奪去；願它不列在一年的日子裡，也不算在月份的日數中。

3:7

ἀλλὰ ἡ νὺξ ἐκείνη εἴη ὀδύνη καὶ μὴ ἔλθοι ἐπ’ αὐτὴν εὐφροσύνη μηδὲ χαρμονή

But let that night be pain, and let no gladness nor joy come upon it.

願那夜成為痛苦，願喜樂和歡騰都不臨到它。

3:8

ἀλλὰ καταράσαιτο αὐτὴν ὁ καταρώμενος τὴν ἡμέραν ἐκείνην ὁ μέλλων τὸ μέγα κῆτος χειρώσασθαι

But let him curse it who curses that day, he who is about to subdue the great sea-monster.

願那咒詛日子的咒詛它，就是那將要制伏大海獸的。

3:9

σκοτωθείη τὰ ἄστρα τῆς νυκτὸς ἐκείνης ὑπομείναι καὶ εἰς φωτισμὸν μὴ ἔλθοι καὶ μὴ ἴδοι ἑωσφόρον ἀνατέλλοντα

Let the stars of that night be darkened; let it wait and not come to light, and let it not see the morning star rising.

願那夜的星宿變為黑暗；願它苦等而不得光明，也看不見晨星上升。
