Psalms 131
131
My Heart Is Meek
A song of the stairway by King David
1Lord, my heart is meek before you.
I don’t consider myself better than others.
I’m content to not pursue matters that are over my head—
such as your complex mysteries and wonders—
that I’m not yet ready to understand.
2I am humbled and quieted in your presence.
Like a contented child who rests on its mother’s lap, # 131:2 “Like a contented child” is literally “Like a weaned child.”
I’m your resting child and my soul is content in you.
3O people of God, # 131:3 Or “O Israel.” your time has come to quietly trust,
waiting upon the Lord now and forever.

Trust the Lord!
1I am not conceited, Lord,
and I don't waste my time
on impossible schemes.
2But I have learned to feel safe
and satisfied,
like a young child
in its mother's arms.
3People of Israel,
you must trust the Lord
now and forever.
