Psalms 131

1 LORD, my heart is not proud; my eyes are not haughty. I do not get involved with things too great or too wondrous for me.

2 Instead, I have calmed and quieted my soul like a weaned child with its mother; my soul is like a weaned child.

3 Israel, put your hope in the LORD, both now and forever.
