"In the night watches I am awake, so that I may give thought to your saying."
— Psalms 119:148, Bible in Basic English
“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.”
“Mine eyes prevent the night watches, that I might meditate in thy word.”
I have made my prayer with all my heart; give answer to me, O Lord: I will keep your rules.
My cry has gone up to you; take me out of trouble, and I will be guided by your unchanging word.
Before the sun is up, my cry for help comes to your ear; my hope is in your words.
In the night watches I am awake, so that I may give thought to your saying.
Let my voice come to you, in your mercy; O Lord, by your decisions give me life.
Those who have evil designs against me come near; they are far from your law.
You are near, O Lord; and all your teachings are true.
