Tehillim 131 - Chapter 131 - Psalm 131

Shir hamaalot ledavid, Adonai lo gava libi, velo ramu enai ,velo hilachti bigdolot uvniflaot mimêni
Im lo shivíti vedomámti nafshi, kegamul alê imo cagamul alai nafshi
Iachel Yisrael el Adonai meata vead olam

1. A Song of Maalot of David. Lord, my heart is not haughty, nor my eyes lofty; nor do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things too high for me.
2. Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, like a child who is weaned from his mother; my soul is like a weaned child.
3. Let Israel hope in the Lord from this time forth and for evermore.

A payer against the trait of haughtiness

In this prayer, David declares that never in the course of his life was he haughty, nor did he pursue greatness or worldly pleasures.
