O Lord, my heart is not exalted,

Neither have mine eyes been haughtily raised:

Neither have I exercised myself in great matters,

Nor in things too wonderful for me.

2  I shall have sinned if I have not been humble,

But have exalted my soul:

According to the relation of a weaned child to his mother,

So wilt thou recompense my soul.

3 Let Israel hope in the Lord,

From henceforth and forever.
