Psalm 131

Berean Standard Bible · 3 verses

Summary

A very short song of ascents attributed to David. He tells the LORD that his heart is not proud and he is not reaching for things too great for him; instead he has calmed and quieted his soul, like a weaned child resting with its mother, and he invites Israel to hope in the LORD.
