131 Een bedevaartslied van David.
Here, ik stel mijzelf niet boven anderen
en kijk niet trots om mij heen.
Ik bemoei mij niet met zaken die te hoog gegrepen zijn
of die ik niet kan begrijpen.
2 Innerlijk ben ik tot rust gekomen
en ik houd van de stilte.
Zo rustig als een kind zit op zijn moeders schoot,
zo rustig voel ik mij van binnen.
3 Laat het volk Israël al zijn vertrouwen op de Here stellen,
nu en voor altijd.

Psalm 131
King James Version
131 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.
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.
3 Let Israel hope in the Lord from henceforth and for ever.

Simple Trust in the Lord
A Song of Ascents. Of David.
131 Lord, my heart is not [a]haughty,
Nor my eyes [b]lofty.
(A)Neither do I [c]concern myself with great matters,
Nor with things too [d]profound for me.
2 Surely I have calmed and quieted my soul,
(B)Like a weaned child with his mother;
Like a weaned child is my soul within me.
3 (C)O Israel, hope in the Lord
From this time forth and forever.
