< 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.
Yahwe, moyo wangu haujivuni wala macho yangu hayana kuburi. Sina matarajio makubwa kwa ajili yangu mwenyewe wala kujihofia kwa mambo ambayo yako juu ya uwezo wangu.
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.
Hakika nimejituliza na kuinyamazisha nafsi yangu; kama mtoto aliyeachishwa na mama yake, nafsi yangu ndani yangu iko kama mtoto aliye achishwa.
3 O Israel, put your hope in the LORD, both now and forevermore.
Israeli, umtumainie Yahwe sasa na hata milele.
