English Standard Version

I Have Calmed and Quieted My Soul

A Song of Ascents. Of David.

1O Lord, my heart is not lifted up;
my eyes are not raised too high;
I do not occupy myself with things
too great and too marvelous for me.
2But I have calmed and quieted my soul,
like a weaned child with its mother;
like a weaned child is my soul within me.

3O Israel, hope in the Lord
from this time forth and forevermore.
