Psalms 131

I Have Stilled My Soul

A song of ascents. Of David.

¹My heart is not proud, O Lord,
my eyes are not haughty.
I do not aspire to great things
or matters too lofty for me.
²Surely I have stilled and quieted my soul;
like a weaned child with his mother,
like a weaned child is my soul within me.

³O Israel, put your hope in the Lord,
both now and forevermore.
