Psalm 131
International Standard Version

A Davidic Song of Ascents

Hope in the Lord

131 Lord, my heart is not arrogant,
    nor do I look haughty.
I do not aspire[a] to great things,
    nor concern myself with things beyond my ability.
2 Instead, I have composed and quieted myself
    like a weaned child with its mother;
        I am like a weaned child.

3 Place your hope in the Lord, Israel,
    both now and forever.
