< 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.
He waiata; he pikitanga. Na Rawiri. E Ihowa, ehara toku i te ngakau whakapehapeha: ehara ano oku i te kanohi whakakake: kahore hoki ahau e rahurahu ki nga mea nunui, e kore nei e taea e ahau.
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.
He pono kua meinga e ahau toku wairua kia tau, a kia mahaki, pera i to te tamaiti kua wehea i te u o tona whaea: he rite toku wairua ki te tamaiti katahi nei ka wehe i te u.
3 Let Israel waite on the Lord from hencefoorth and for euer.
E Iharaira, kia tumanako ki a Ihowa: aianei a ake tonu atu.
