Psalms 131

1 A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. BY DAVID. YHWH, my heart has not been haughty, Nor have my eyes been high, Nor have I walked in great things, And in things too wonderful for me.

A song of ascents. Of David. O Lord, my heart is not haughty, my eyes are not lofty, I walk not among great things, things too wonderful for me.

2 Have I not compared, and kept my soul silent, As a weaned one by its mother? As a weaned one by me [is] my soul.

Yes, I have soothed and stilled myself, like a young child on his mother’s lap; like a young child am I.

3 Israel waits on YHWH, From now on, and for all time!

O Israel, hope in the Lord from now and for evermore.
