🔊 LISTEN TO CHAPTER

The Book of Psalms is canonical in Judaism (Ketuvim) and Christianity (Old Testament), with its authority confirmed by ancient manuscripts (Qumran), the New Testament, and councils (Hippo, Carthage). The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church, however, has a broader canon that includes Psalm 151 as an integral part of the Psalter, accepted as Holy Scripture also by Orthodox, Syriac, and Armenian traditions, demonstrating the historical diversity of biblical canons.

Psalms

Chapter 131 — A Song of degrees of David.

1

LORD, my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty: neither do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things too high for me.

2

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

3

Let Israel hope in the LORD from henceforth and for ever.

131 / 151
