'Prevent' in the Bible

Why did the knees prevent me? or why the breasts that I should suck?

The God of my mercy shall prevent me: God shall let me see my desire upon mine enemies.

O remember not against us former iniquities: let thy tender mercies speedily prevent us: for we are brought very low.

But unto thee have I cried, O LORD; and in the morning shall my prayer prevent thee.

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

All the sinners of my people shall die by the sword, which say, The evil shall not overtake nor prevent us.

For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
