American King James Version
" My eyes prevent the night watches, that I might meditate in your word. "
— Psalms 119:148, American King James Version
“Mine eyes prevent the night watches, that I might meditate in thy word.”
“Mine eyes anticipated the night-watches, That I might meditate on thy word. ”
“My eyes stay open through the night watches, that I might meditate on your word.”
“My eyes anticipate the nighttime hours, so that I can meditate on your word.”
“In the night watches I am awake, so that I may give thought to your saying.”
“Mine eyes prevent the night watches, that I might meditate in thy word.”
I cried with my whole heart; hear me, O LORD: I will keep your statutes.
I cried to you; save me, and I shall keep your testimonies.
I prevented the dawning of the morning, and cried: I hoped in your word.
My eyes prevent the night watches, that I might meditate in your word.
Hear my voice according to your loving kindness: O LORD, quicken me according to your judgment.
They draw near that follow after mischief: they are far from your law.
You are near, O LORD; and all your commandments are truth.
