Psalms 131

A Childlike Spirit

1 A Davidic ^{▼▼song of ascents: Probably the songs pilgrims sang as they traveled the roads going up to worship in Jerusalem; Pss 120-134}song of ascents.

Lord, my heart is not proud;
my eyes are not haughty. ^b
I do not get involved with things
too great or too difficult for me. ^c
2 Instead, I have calmed and quieted myself
like a little weaned child with its mother;
I am like a little child. ^d

3 Israel, put your hope in the Lord,
both now and forever. ^e
