Psalms 131

1 Lord, my heart is not exalted: nor are my eyes lofty. Neither have I walked in great matters, nor in wonderful things above me.

Adonai, my heart is not haughty, nor my eyes lofty; nor do I concern myself with great matters, or things too wonderful for me.

2 If I was not humbly minded, but exalted my soul: As a child that is weaned is towards his mother, so reward in my soul.

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

Israel [God prevails], hope in Adonai, from this time forward and forever more.
