Humilde confianza en Dios

Cántico de ascenso gradual[a]; de David.

131 Señor, mi corazón no es soberbio(A), ni mis ojos altivos(B);
no ando tras las grandezas(C),
ni en cosas demasiado difíciles[b] para mí(D);
sino que he calmado y acallado mi alma(E);
como niño destetado en el regazo de su madre(F),
como niño destetado reposa en mí mi alma.
Espera, oh Israel(G), en el Señor,
desde ahora y para siempre(H).

  2. Salmos 131:1 O, maravillosas

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.

Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of his mother: my soul is even as a weaned child.

Let Israel hope in the Lord from henceforth and for ever.

Psalm 131

A song of ascents. Of David.

My heart is not proud,(A) Lord,
    my eyes are not haughty;(B)
I do not concern myself with great matters(C)
    or things too wonderful for me.(D)
But I have calmed and quieted myself,(E)
    I am like a weaned child with its mother;
    like a weaned child I am content.(F)

Israel, put your hope(G) in the Lord
    both now and forevermore.(H)

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.

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.

(C)O Israel, hope in the Lord
From this time forth and forever.

I Have Calmed and Quieted My Soul

131 O Lord, my heart is not (B)lifted up;

I do not (D)occupy myself with things

But I have calmed and quieted my soul,
    like a weaned (F)child with its mother;
    like a weaned child is my soul within me.

(G)O Israel, hope in the Lord
