I don't believe that's a safe conclusion at all, since David says he was conceived in sin.
Are you referring to this?
Job 3:16 Or as an hidden untimely birth I had not been; as
infants which never saw light.
(Interesting that Job calls unborn children "infants," which would make abortion
infanticide. He also calls himself newly conceived a "man child" in verse 3. It's getting pretty tough to define an unborn baby as anything less than a
child in the Bible!)
I don't see how this addresses when sin nature arrives (David did that) or anything else but the state of suffering Job was in.
