Psalm 131

<< Psalm 131 >>
Geneva Study Bible
 

1 <> LORD, {a} my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty: neither do I exercise myself in great {b} matters, or in things too high for me.

(a) He sets forth his great humility as an example to all rulers and governors.

(b) Which pass the measure and limits of his calling.

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

(c) He was void of ambition and wicked desires.

3 Let Israel hope in the LORD from henceforth and for ever.
