< Psalms 131 >
1 A Song of degrees of David. LORD, my heart [is] not haughty, nor my eyes lofty: neither do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things too high for me.
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 Surely I have behaved and quieted myself as a child that is weaned by his mother: my soul [is] even as a weaned child.
Hakika nimejituliza na kuinyamazisha nafsi yangu; kama mtoto aliyeachishwa na mama yake, nafsi yangu ndani yangu iko kama mtoto aliye achishwa.
3 Let Israel hope in the LORD from henceforth and for ever.
Israeli, umtumainie Yahwe sasa na hata milele.
