Psalm 131

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

Song of Quiet Trust

A Song of Ascents. Of David.

131 O Lord, my heart is not lifted up,
    my eyes are not raised too high;
I do not occupy myself with things
    too great and too marvelous for me.
²But I have calmed and quieted my soul,
    like a child quieted at its mother’s breast;
    like a child that is quieted is my soul.

³O Israel, hope in the Lord
from this time forth and for evermore.
