- Chapter 131 -

I have brought my soul to rest

1
Yahweh, I am not proud; I do not deserve to achieve impressive things in life. I do not worry about problems that are too difficult for me to solve.
2
Instead, I am calm and peaceful in my inner being like a small child who no longer nurses but is happy to be with its mother. In the same way, I am peaceful within my inner being.
3
You, my fellow Israelites, confidently expect that Yahweh will do good things for you now and forever!

I have brought my soul to rest

1
LORD, my heart isn’t arrogant, nor my eyes lofty; nor do I concern myself with great matters, or things too wonderful for me.
2
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, from this time forward and forever more.
