The Book of Psalms

Lord , my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty: neither do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things too high for me.(a)

(b)

Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of his mother: my soul is even as a weaned child.(c)

Let Israel hope in the Lord from henceforth and for ever.(d)

(a)131:1 exercise…: Heb. walk

(b)131:1 high: Heb. wonderful

(d)131:3 henceforth: Heb. now

LORD, my heart isn’t arrogant, nor my eyes lofty; nor do I concern myself with great matters, or things too wonderful for me.

Surely I have stilled and quieted my soul, like a weaned child with his mother, like a weaned child is my soul within me.

Israel, hope in the LORD, from this time forward and forever more.
