Psalm CXXXI.

1

O Lord, I am not proud in heart;
I have no lofty eye:
Nor do I exercise my self
In things that are too high.

2

But as a child that weaned is,
And taken from the breast:
So have I, Lord, behav'd my self
In quietness and rest.

3

And let the people every where,
That Israel's God adore,
Observe and learn to trust in him,
Both now and evermore.
