'Watches' in the Bible
All human beings have looked on it; everyone watches from afar.
[The] wicked watches for the righteous and seeks to kill him.
When I remember you on my bed, I meditate on you in [the] night watches.
Yahweh watches over [the] simple. I was brought low, but he gave me victory.
My eyes anticipate [the] night watches, that [I may] meditate on your word.
Unless Yahweh builds a house, its builders labor at it in vain. Unless Yahweh guards a city, a guard watches in vain.
Whoever watches the wind will not sow; whoever watches the clouds will not reap.
"Arise, cry out in the night, at the beginning of the night watches; pour out your heart like water, before the face of the Lord. Lift to him your hands, for the life of your children, who faint in starvation, at the head of all streets."
{My anger burns} against the shepherds, and I will punish the leaders, because Yahweh of hosts watches over his flock, the house of Judah; and he will make them like his majestic horse in war.
