Psalms 131

1 A Song of Degrees. O Lord, my heart is not exalted, neither have mine eyes been [haughtily] raised: neither have I exercised myself in great [matters], nor in things too wonderful for me.

Wimbo wa kwenda juu. Wa Daudi. Moyo wangu hauna kiburi, Ee Bwana, macho yangu hayajivuni; sijishughulishi na mambo makuu kunizidi wala mambo ya ajabu mno kwangu.

2 [I shall have sinned] if I have not been humble, but have exulted my soul: according to [the relation of] a weaned child to his mother, so will you recompense my soul.

Lakini nimetuliza na kunyamazisha nafsi yangu; kama mtoto aliyeachishwa kunyonya na mama yake, kama mtoto aliyeachishwa kunyonya ndivyo ilivyo nafsi iliyoko ndani yangu.

3 Let Israel hope in the Lord, from henceforth and for ever.

Ee Israeli, mtumaini Bwana tangu sasa na hata milele.
