Psalm 131

Childlike Trust in the Lord.

A Song of Ascents, of David.

1 Lord, my heart is not proud, nor my eyes arrogant;

Nor do I *131:1 Lit go after, walkinvolve myself in great matters,

Or in things too *131:1 Or marvelousdifficult for me.

2 I have certainly soothed and quieted my soul;

Like a weaned child resting*131:2 Or uponagainst his mother,

My soul *131:2 Or uponwithin me is like a weaned child.

3 Israel, wait for the Lord

From this time on and forever.
