King James Version with Apocrypha
"Mine eyes prevent the night watches, that I might meditate in thy word."
— Psalms 119:148, King James Version with Apocrypha
“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.”
I cried with my whole heart; hear me, O Lord: I will keep thy statutes.
I cried unto thee; save me, and I shall keep thy testimonies.
I prevented the dawning of the morning, and cried: I hoped in thy word.
Mine eyes prevent the night watches, that I might meditate in thy word.
Hear my voice according unto thy lovingkindness: O Lord, quicken me according to thy judgment.
They draw nigh that follow after mischief: they are far from thy law.
Thou art near, O Lord; and all thy commandments are truth.
