Psalms 63:6

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

KJV

Subito sagittabunt eum, et non timebunt ; firmaverunt sibi sermonem nequam. Narraverunt ut absconderent laqueos ; dixerunt : Quis videbit eos ?

Vulgate

ἐκραταίωσαν ἑαυτοῖς λόγον πονηρόν, διηγήσαντο τοῦ κρύψαι παγίδας· εἶπαν Τίς ὄψεται αὐτούς;

LXX

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