Psalm 131
International Children’s Bible
Childlike Trust in God
A song for going up to worship. Of David.
131 Lord, my heart is not proud.
    I don’t look down on others.
I don’t do great things,
    and I can’t do miracles.
2 But I am calm and quiet.
    I am like a baby with its mother.
    I am at peace, like a baby with its mother.
3 People of Israel, put your hope in the Lord
    now and forever.
Psalm 131
Tree of Life Version
Be Still My Soul
Psalm 131
1 A Song of Ascents. Of David.
Adonai, my heart is not proud,
nor my eyes lofty,
nor do I go after things too great
or too difficult for me.
2 But I have calmed and quieted my soul—
like a weaned child with his mother,
like a weaned child is my soul within me.
3 O Israel, put your hope in Adonai
from this time forth and forever.
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.
