[Psalms 131:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Psalms/r/131:1)

שִׁ֥יר הַֽמַּעֲל֗וֹת לְדָ֫וִ֥ד יְהֹוָ֤ה**׀** לֹא־גָבַ֣הּ לִ֭בִּי וְלֹא־רָמ֣וּ עֵינַ֑י וְלֹֽא־הִלַּ֓כְתִּי**׀** בִּגְדֹל֖וֹת וּבְנִפְלָא֣וֹת מִמֶּֽנִּי׃

**The Koren Jerusalem Bible:**
A Ma῾alot Poem of David. Lord, my heart is not haughty, nor my eyes lofty: nor do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things too high for me.

**The Rashi Ketuvim by Rabbi Shraga Silverstein:**
A song of ascents, of David. O L rd, my heart has not been haughty, and my eyes have not been uplifted, nor have I gone about with grandeurs and glories unbefitting me [(unlike my son Solomon, who disported himself thus)].


###### Psalms 131:2

אִם־לֹ֤א שִׁוִּ֨יתִי**׀** וְדוֹמַ֗מְתִּי נַ֫פְשִׁ֥י כְּ֭גָמֻל עֲלֵ֣י אִמּ֑וֹ כַּגָּמֻ֖ל עָלַ֣י נַפְשִֽׁי׃

**The Koren Jerusalem Bible:**
Surely I have stilled and quieted myself, like a weaned child beside his mother: my soul within me is like a weaned child.

**The Rashi Ketuvim by Rabbi Shraga Silverstein:**
[Let it be requited of me] if I did not set and repose my soul [upon You] as a suckling upon its mother. As a suckling [upon You] was my soul with me.
