< Psalms 131 >

1 A song for pilgrims going up to Jerusalem. A psalm of David. Lord, I'm not proud or arrogant. I don't worry about things that are beyond me, matters that are far beyond my experience.
Ein Wallfahrtslied Davids. HERR, mein Herz ist nicht hochfahrend,
2 On the contrary, I have chosen to be calm and quiet, like a weaned child with its mother. I am like a weaned child with its mother.
Nein, ich habe mein Herz beruhigt und gestillt; wie ein entwöhntes Kind an der Mutter Brust, so ruht entwöhnt mein Herz in mir. –
3 Israel, hope in the Lord, now and forever!
Israel, harre des HERRN von nun an bis in Ewigkeit.
