קִדַּ֣מְתִּי בַ֭נֶּשֶׁף וָאֲשַׁוֵּ֑עָה לדבריך [לִדְבָרְךָ֥] יִחָֽלְתִּי׃
Я встал рано на рассвете и плакал; Я надеялся на слово Твое.

How David rose at midnight ! He rose at eventide ; as it is written, "I arose early beneshef and cried" (Ps. cxix. 147). Whence is it learnt that neshef means evening ? Because it is written, "In the twilight [beneshef], in the evening of the day, in the blackness of night and the darkness" (Prov. vii. 9).
