Listen from:
1 A song of the ascents: of David. Jehovah, my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty; neither do I meddle (walk) with [things] great and with [things] too wonderful for me.
2 Surely, (if) I have stilled and quieted my soul, as a weaned one upon its mother; as the weaned one [is] my soul within me. Hope, Israel, for (or in) Jehovah henceforth and for ever.
Notes on Psalm 131
“A song of the ascents: of David.” This is the moral accompaniment of faith in mercy. Hope in Jehovah supplants self-confidence or looking elsewhere.
