 ⇔ May it not enter into the number of months.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

יִקָּחֵ֪⁠ה֫וּ אֹ֥פֶל

seize,it darkness

Job is speaking of gloom as if it were a living thing that could take away the night of his conception, as if it were an object that could be carried. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “may it be without any light”

Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns

אַל־יִ֭חַדְּ בִּ⁠ימֵ֣י שָׁנָ֑ה בְּ⁠מִסְפַּ֥ר יְ֝רָחִ֗ים אַל־יָבֹֽא

not rejoice in/on/at/with,days year in/on/at/with,number months not come

The pronoun it refers to the day when Job was born. Job is alternating between speaking about that day and about the night when he was conceived. Alternate translation: “May the day when I was born not rejoice among the days of the year; into the number of the months may it not come”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

אַל־יִ֭חַדְּ בִּ⁠ימֵ֣י שָׁנָ֑ה בְּ⁠מִסְפַּ֥ר יְ֝רָחִ֗ים אַל־יָבֹֽא

not rejoice in/on/at/with,days year in/on/at/with,number months not come

Job is speaking of the day of his birth as if it were a living thing that could rejoice that it was one of the days of the year and that could come among the months of the year. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “May it not be one of the days of the year, yes, may it not be a day in any of the months”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

אַל־יִ֭חַדְּ בִּ⁠ימֵ֣י שָׁנָ֑ה בְּ⁠מִסְפַּ֥ר יְ֝רָחִ֗ים אַל־יָבֹֽא

not rejoice in/on/at/with,days year in/on/at/with,number months not come

Job is not saying that he does not want the day of his birth to be one of the months of the year. Rather, he is using the possessive form the number of the months to mean the group of all of the months. In other words, that is another way of saying “the year.” Alternate translation: “May it not be one of the days of the year; indeed, may it not be part of the year at all” or, combining the two phrases, “May that day be left out of the year completely”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

אַל־יִ֭חַדְּ בִּ⁠ימֵ֣י שָׁנָ֑ה בְּ⁠מִסְפַּ֥ר יְ֝רָחִ֗ים אַל־יָבֹֽא

not rejoice in/on/at/with,days year in/on/at/with,number months not come

It may be more natural in your language to mention the shorter period, months, before the longer period, the year, in order to increase the emphasis as the sentence progresses. The UST models one way to do this.

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

3:1-26 Job’s outburst did not mean that his integrity had cracked under the strain (42:7-8; Jas 5:11). Elijah and Jeremiah, both godly men, used the same hyperbolic language (1 Kgs 19:4; Jer 20:14-18).

OET (OET-LV)The_night (the)_that seize_it gloom not let_it_rejoice in/on/at/with_days of_[the]_year in/on/at/with_number of_[the]_months not let_it_come.

OET (OET-RV)May gloom take that night.
 ⇔ May it not be happy among the days of the year.
 ⇔ May it not enter into the number of months.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
