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.

1 Jehovah, my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty; Neither do I exercise myself in great matters, Or in things too wonderful for me.

1 Lord, there is no pride in my heart and my eyes are not lifted up; and I have not taken part in great undertakings, or in things over-hard for me.

2Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of his mother: my soul is even as a weaned child.

2Surely I have stilled and quieted my soul; Like a weaned child with his mother, Like a weaned child is my soul within me.

2See, I have made my soul calm and quiet, like a child on its mother's breast; my soul is like a child on its mother's breast.

3Let Israel hope in the Lord from henceforth and for ever.

3O Israel, hope in Jehovah From this time forth and for evermore.

3O Israel, have hope in the Lord, from this time and for ever.
