- I prevented:
- That is, I anticipated, or rose before, the morning dawn; and was before hand with the light itself. "My voiceª shalt thou hearª° in the morning,ª O LORD;ª in the morningª will I directª° [my prayer] unto thee, and will look up.ª°" {Psa 5:3} + "For¹ thou preventestª° him with the blessingsª of goodness:ª thou settestª° a crownª of pure goldª on his head.ª" {Psa 21:3} + "[Yet] the LORDª will commandª° his lovingkindnessª in the daytime,ª and in the nightª his songª [shall be] with¹ me, [and] my prayerª unto the Godª of my life.ª" {Psa 42:8} + "But unto¹ thee have I¹ cried,ª° O LORD;ª and in the morningª shall my prayerª preventª° thee." {Psa 88:13} + "My soulª [waiteth] for the Lordª more than they that watchª°¹ for the morning:ª [I say, more than] they that watchª° for the morning.ª" {Psa 130:6} + "With my soulª have I desiredª° thee in the night;ª yea,¹ with my spiritª withinª me will I seek thee early:ª° for¹ when¹ thy judgmentsª [are] in the earth,ª the inhabitantsª° of the worldª will learnª° righteousness.ª" {Isa 26:9} + "Andª in the morning,²¹ rising upª° a great while² before day,²¹¹ he went out,ª° andª departedª° intoª a solitaryª place,ª and thereª prayed.ª°" {Mrk 1:35}
