不要切慕黑夜，就是众民在本处被除灭的时候。

不要切慕黑夜，就是众民在本处被除灭的时候。

不要切慕黑夜，就是众民在本处被除灭的时候。

不要渴望黑夜来临——就是众民被毁灭的时候。

你不可切慕黑夜来临，就是众人在他们的住处被除灭的时候。

不要切慕黑夜，就是眾民在本處被除滅的時候。

不要切慕黑夜，就是眾民在本處被除滅的時候。

不要切慕黑夜，就是眾民在本處被除滅的時候。

不要渴望黑夜來臨——就是眾民被毀滅的時候。

你不可切慕黑夜來臨，就是眾人在他們的住處被除滅的時候。

不要喘息切慕着黑夜，就是萬族之民在其本處被剪滅的時候。

勿慕黑夜、即眾民見除、而離其所之時、

勿樂死亡、歸於陰府、

毋羨黑夜、即萬民見除於其所之時、即萬民見除於其所之時或作即萬民入深處之時

Do not long for the night, to drag people away from their homes.

Do not long for the night, when peoples vanish in their place.

Do not long for the cover of night, for that is when people will be destroyed.

Do not long for the night when nations will disappear from their places.

Do not long for the night, When people vanish in their places.

Do not desire the night, When people are cut off in their place.

Desire not the night, When peoples are cut off in their place.

Do not long for the night when nations will disappear from their places.

Desire not the night, when people are cut off in their place.

Do not long for the cover of night to drag people away from their homes.

Don’t desire the night, when people are cut off in their place.

They die suddenly in the middle of the night. God strikes them down, and they pass away. Even people who are mighty are removed, but not by human hands.

He knows what they do. So he crushes them during the night.

That very night Belshazzar, the king of Babylon, was killed.

You know very well how the day of the Lord will come. It will come like a thief in the night.People will be saying that everything is peaceful and safe. Then suddenly they will be destroyed. It will happen like birth pains coming on a pregnant woman. None of the people will escape.

At midnight the Lord struck down every oldest son in Egypt. He killed the oldest son of Pharaoh, who sat on the throne. He killed all the oldest sons of prisoners. He also killed all the male animals born first to their mothers among the livestock.

“ But God said to him,‘ You foolish man! Tonight I will take your life away from you. Then who will get what you have prepared for yourself?’

Show us who should take the place of Judas as an apostle. He gave up being an apostle to go where he belongs.”

“ I wish you would hide me in a grave! I wish you would cover me up until your anger passes by! I wish you would set the time for me to spend in the grave and then bring me back up!

When trouble comes, sinners are brought down. But godly people seek safety in God even as they die.

I wish he would crush me! I wish he would just cut off my life!

Clouds that are full of water pour rain down on the earth. A tree might fall to the south or the north. It will stay in the place where it falls.

“ Why should those who suffer ever be born? Why should life be given to those whose spirits are bitter?Why is life given to those who long for death that doesn’t come? Why is it given to those who would rather search for death than for hidden treasure?

That night the angel of the Lord went into the camp of the Assyrians. He put to death 185,000 people there. The people of Jerusalem got up the next morning and looked out at the camp. There were all the dead bodies!

So I would rather choke to death. That would be better than living in this body of mine.

Suppose the only home I can hope for is a grave. And suppose I make my bed in the darkness of death.Suppose I say to the grave,‘ You are like a father to me.’ And suppose I say to its worms,‘ You are like a mother or sister to me.’
