Psalms 131

1 Yahweh, I am not proud and I have not thought highly about (myself/the things that I have done). And I do not concern myself about things [that you have done] that are very big or very wonderful.

Yahwe, moyo wangu haujivuni wala macho yangu hayana kuburi. Sina matarajio makubwa kwa ajili yangu mwenyewe wala kujihofia kwa mambo ambayo yako juu ya uwezo wangu.

2 Instead, I am calm and peaceful, like a [small] child who lies quietly in its mother’s arms [SIM]. In the same way, I am peaceful.

Hakika nimejituliza na kuinyamazisha nafsi yangu; kama mtoto aliyeachishwa na mama yake, nafsi yangu ndani yangu iko kama mtoto aliye achishwa.

3 You [my fellow] Israelis, confidently expect that Yahweh [will do good things for you], now and forever!

Israeli, umtumainie Yahwe sasa na hata milele.
