Psalms 131

1 A Song of the going up. Of David. Lord, there is no pride in my heart and my eyes are not lifted up; and I have not taken part in great undertakings, or in things over-hard for me.

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.

2 See, I have made my soul calm and quiet, like a child on its mother's breast; my soul is like a child on its mother's breast.

Surely I have stilled and quieted my soul; like a weaned child with his mother, like a weaned child is my soul within me.

3 O Israel, have hope in the Lord, from this time and for ever.

O Israel, put your hope in the LORD, both now and forevermore.
