Psalm 131 (NASB2020)

Psalm 131

Childlike Trust in the Lord.

A Song of Ascents, of David.

1Lord, my heart is not proud, nor my eyes arrogant;

Nor do I 131:1 Lit go after, walkinvolve myself in great matters,

Or in things too 131:1 Or marvelousdifficult for me.

2I have certainly soothed and quieted my soul;

Like a weaned child resting 131:2 Or uponagainst his mother,

My soul 131:2 Or uponwithin me is like a weaned child.

3Israel, wait for the Lord

From this time on and forever.
