1 Adonai , my heart is not haughty, nor my eyes lofty;
nor do I concern myself with great matters,
or things too wonderful for me.
2 Surely I have stilled and quieted my soul,
like a weaned child with his mother,
like a weaned child is my soul within me.
3 Israel [God prevails], hope in Adonai ,
from this time forward and forever more.
