A Song of Ascents; of David.
Jehovah, my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty;
Neither do I {Hebrew: walk.}exercise myself in great matters,
Or in things too wonderful for me.
Surely I have stilled and quieted my soul;
Like a weaned child with his mother,
Like a weaned child is my soul within me.
O Israel, hope in Jehovah
From this time forth and for evermore.
