Psalm 131

A Childlike Spirit

A song of ascents. Of David.

1   LORD, my heart is not proud;

my eyes are not haughty. q

I do not get involved with things

too great or too wondrous for me. r

2   Instead, I have calmed and quieted my soul

like a weaned child with its mother;

my soul is like a weaned child. s

3   Israel, put your hope in the LORD,

both now and forever. t
