< Psalms 131 >
1 The song of greces, `to Dauith himself. Lord, myn herte is not enhaunsid; nether myn iyen ben reisid. Nether Y yede in the grete thingis; nether in merueilis aboue me.
[A Song of Ascents. By David.] LORD, my heart isn't haughty, nor my eyes lofty; nor do I concern myself with great matters, or things too wonderful for me.
2 If Y feelide not mekely; but enhaunside my soule. As a childe wenyde on his modir; so yelding be in my soule.
Surely I have stilled and quieted my soul, like a weaned child with his mother, like a weaned child is my soul within me.
3 Israel hope in the Lord; fro this tyme now and in to the world.
Israel, hope in the LORD, from this time forth and forevermore.
