חֲצֽוֹת־לַ֗יְלָה אָ֭קוּם לְהוֹד֣וֹת לָ֑ךְ עַ֝֗ל מִשְׁפְּטֵ֥י צִדְקֶֽךָ׃
半夜我必起來稱謝你，因你公義的典章。
The Sabbath Epistle
Thus the poet (David) said, “Evening, morning, and noon” (Psalms 55:18), and he did not say “morning, noon, and evening”. He mentioned the three times when a person is obliged to pray, for the other(?) time people are asleep. That is “At midnight I arise to praise You” (ibid. 119:62).
