< Psalms 131 >
1 A song of ascents. Of David. My heart is not proud, O LORD, my eyes are not haughty. I do not aspire to great things or matters too lofty for me.
A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. BY DAVID. YHWH, my heart has not been haughty, Nor have my eyes been high, Nor have I walked in great things, And in things too wonderful for me.
2 Surely I have stilled and quieted my soul; like a weaned child with his mother, like a weaned child is my soul within me.
Have I not compared, and kept my soul silent, As a weaned one by its mother? As a weaned one by me [is] my soul.
3 O Israel, put your hope in the LORD, both now and forevermore.
Israel waits on YHWH, From now on, and for all time!
