Tehillim 131 (TOJB2011)

1(Shir HaMa'alot, of Dovid)

1 Hashem, my lev is not haughty,

nor mine eyes lofty;

neither do I exercise myself in gedolot,

or in things too high for me.

2Surely I have stilled and quieted my nefesh,

as a child that is weaned of immo;

my nefesh is even as a weaned child.

3Let Yisroel hope in Hashem

from henceforth and ad olam.
