1(132) A Song of Degrees. Lord, remember David, and all his meekness:
1Lord, my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty: neither do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things too high for me.
2how he swore to the Lord, [and] vowed to the God of Jacob, [saying],
2Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of his mother: my soul is even as a weaned child.
3I will not go into the tabernacle of my house; I will not go up to the couch of my bed;
3Let Israel hope in the Lord from henceforth and for ever.
