psalms 119:147 I prevented the dawning of the morning, and cried: I hoped in thy word.

psalms 119:147 I rise before dawn and cry for help; I wait for Thy words.

147. prevented--literally, "came before," anticipated not only the dawn, but even the usual periods of the night; when the night watches, which might be expected to find me asleep, come, they find me awake (Ps 63:6; 77:4; La 2:19). Such is the earnestness of the desire and love for God's truth.

psalms 119:147 I rise before dawn and cry for help; I wait for Thy words.
