9 May its morning stars become dark;

may it wait for daylight in vain

and not see the first rays of dawn,

9 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:

9 Let its morning stars remain dark.

Let it hope for light, but in vain;

may it never see the morning light.

9 May the stars of its morning be dark;

May it look for light, but have none,

And not see the dawning of the day;

9 Let that day’s morning stars never appear;

let it wait for daylight that never comes.

Don’t let it see the first light of dawn,

9 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:

9 Let the stars of its twilight be dark; let it wait for light, and have none, neither let it see the eyelids of the dawn:

9 Let its stars turn dark before dawn. 

Let it hope for light and receive none. 

Let it not see the first light of dawn 

9 May its morning stars grow dark.

May it wait for daylight but have none;

may it not see the breaking of dawn.

9 Let the stars of its dawn be dark;

let it hope for light, but have none;

may it not see the eyelids of the morning—

9 Let the stars of its dawn be dark;

let it hope for light but there be none,

and let it not see the eyelids of dawn

9 May its morning stars become dark.

May it lose all hope of ever seeing daylight.

May it not see the first light of the morning sun.

9 “Let the stars of its twilight be darkened;

Let it wait for light but have none,

And let it not see the breaking dawn;
