Psalms 131 GNV
Summary: A very short Song of Ascents of David expressing deliberate humility: "Lord, my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty: neither do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things too high for me" (v. 1). Its central image is domestic and tender — "I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of his mother: my soul is even as a weaned child" (v. 2) — a picture of contented rest rather than striving. It closes urging Israel to "hope in the LORD from henceforth and for ever" (v. 3).
1A song of degrees or Psalme of David. Lord, mine heart is not hautie, neither are mine eyes loftie, neither haue I walked in great matters and hid from me.
2Surely I haue behaued my selfe, like one wained from his mother, and kept silence: I am in my selfe as one that is wained.
3Let Israel waite on the Lord from hencefoorth and for euer.
