Psalms 131

A Song of Ascents of David

שִׁיר הַֽמַּֽעֲלוֹת לְדָוִד
*
A Song of degrees of David.

My soul is like a weaned child

יְהוָה׀ לֹא-גָבַהּ לִבִּי וְלֹא-רָמוּ עֵינַי וְלֹֽא-הִלַּכְתִּי׀ בִּגְדֹלוֹת וּבְנִפְלָאוֹת מִמֶּֽנִּי׃
1
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.
אִם-לֹא שִׁוִּיתִי׀ וְדוֹמַמְתִּי נַפְשִׁי כְּגָמֻל עֲלֵי אִמּוֹ כַּגָּמֻל עָלַי נַפְשִֽׁי׃
2
Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of his mother: my soul is even as a weaned child.
יַחֵל יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶל-יְהוָה מֵֽעַתָּה וְעַד-עוֹלָֽם׃
3
Let Israel hope in the LORD from henceforth and for ever.
