watches

And I said unto them, Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun be hot; and while they stand by, let them shut the doors, and bar them: and appoint watches of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, every one in his watch, and every one to be over against his house.

Also Bakbukiah and Unni, their brethren, were over against them in the watches.

When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches.

Mine eyes prevent the night watches, that I might meditate in thy word.

Arise, cry out in the night: in the beginning of the watches pour out thine heart like water before the face of the LORD: lift up thy hands toward him for the life of thy young children, that faint for hunger in the top of every street.

At the commandment of the Holy One they will stand in their order, and never faint in their watches.

The stars shined in their watches, and rejoiced: when he calleth them, they say, Here we be; and so with cheerfulness they shewed light unto him that made them.
