< Psalms 131 >
1 A song of degrees or Psalme of David. Lord, mine heart is not hautie, neither are mine eyes loftie, neither haue I walked in great matters and hid from me.
[A Song of Ascents. By David.] LORD, my heart isn't haughty, nor my eyes lofty; nor do I concern myself with great matters, or things too wonderful for me.
2 Surely I haue behaued my selfe, like one wained from his mother, and kept silence: I am in my selfe as one that is wained.
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 waite on the Lord from hencefoorth and for euer.
Israel, hope in the LORD, from this time forth and forevermore.
