Psalm 131 ~ Psalm 131

picture

1 LORD, my heart has not become haughty, nor mine eyes lofty; neither have I walked in grandeur, nor in wonderful things above and beyond that which pertains to me.

Jehovah, my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty; neither do I exercise myself in great matters, and in things too wonderful for me.

2 R ather I have quieted myself and caused my soul to become silent, that I might be as a child that is weaned of his mother, as one who is weaned from my own life.

Surely I have restrained and composed my soul, like a weaned child with its mother: my soul within me is as a weaned child.

3 L et Israel wait for the LORD from now on and for ever.

Let Israel hope in Jehovah, from henceforth and for evermore.
