Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee will I pray.

My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.

At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto thee because of thy righteous judgments.

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