Job 3:4
Let that day be darkness; let not God regard it from above, neither let the light shine upon it.
KJV
Dies ille vertatur in tenebras : non requirat eum Deus desuper, et non illustretur lumine.
Vulgate
ἡ νὺξ ἐκείνη εἴη σκότος, καὶ μὴ ἀναζητήσαι αὐτὴν ὁ κύριος ἄνωθεν, μηδὲ ἔλθοι εἰς αὐτὴν φέγγος·
LXX
Let that day be darkness; Let not God from above seek for it, Neither let the light shine upon it.
