He said to me, "A guardian from God will not cease to be upon you, and no devil will come near you until morning."

يَقْرَبَكَ he comes near you

A verb of approaching with the 'you' object built onto its end, so one word holds the act, an unstated devil-subject, and the listener as target. Falling under the negation just before it, it asserts no devil comes near the addressee.
