from this time forth and forevermore.

O Israel, hope in the Lord

like a weaned child is my soul within me.

like a weaned child with its mother;

But I have calmed and quieted my soul,

too great and too marvelous for me.

I do not occupy myself with things

my eyes are not raised too high;

O Lord , my heart is not lifted up;

A Song of Ascents. Of David.

I Have Calmed and Quieted My Soul
