Psalms 131

1 “A song of the degrees by David.” O Lord, my heart was not haughty, nor were my eyes lofty: neither have I walked after matters too great, or those too wonderful for me.

Ein Wallfahrtslied Davids. HERR, mein Herz ist nicht hochfahrend,

2 Surely I have pacified and stilled my soul, like the suckling on its mother's breast: like a suckling is in me my soul.

Nein, ich habe mein Herz beruhigt und gestillt; wie ein entwöhntes Kind an der Mutter Brust, so ruht entwöhnt mein Herz in mir. –

3 Let Israel wait for the Lord from this time forth and for ever more.

Israel, harre des HERRN von nun an bis in Ewigkeit.
