May its evening stars stay dark; may it wait in vain for light; may it not see dawn’s gleam,
Let the stars of the twilight thereof be dark; Let it look for light, but have none; Neither let it see the dawning of the day:
Let the stars of the early dawn of that day be dark; let [the morning] look in vain for the light, nor let it behold the day's dawning,
Let the stars of the twilight thereof be dark: Let it look for light, but have none; Neither let it behold the eyelids of the morning:
Let the stars be concealed with its darkness. Let it expect light, and not see it, nor the rising of the dawn in the East.
