Psalm 131

A Childlike Spirit

A song of ascents. Of David.

Lord, my heart is not proud;

my eyes are not haughty.a

I do not get involved with things

too great or too wondrous for me.b

2Instead, I have calmed and quieted my soul

like a weaned child with its mother;

my soul is like a weaned child.a

3Israel, put your hope in the Lord,

both now and forever.a
