'Stillborn' in the Bible

"Or why was I not buried like a stillborn child, like babies who never saw the light?

May they be like a snail that dries up as it crawls; like a woman's stillborn baby, who never saw the sun.

A man might father a hundred children, and live for many years, so that the length of his life is long but if his life does not overflow with goodness, and he doesn't receive a proper burial, I maintain that stillborn children are better off than he is,

because stillborn children arrive in pointlessness, leave in darkness, and their names are covered in darkness.
