Job 3:16 Douay-Rheims

Or as a hidden untimely birth I should not be, or as they that being conceived have not seen the light.

John Chrysostom

A.D. 347–407 Patristic

"Or like a stillborn child that never sees the light," he says. Notice how, in order that he may not appear to be arrogant, he even compares himself with a stillborn child, so absolutely wretched and pitiful is he.
