'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.
