Psalm 131

Dauid charged with ambition and gredie deſire to reigne, proteſteth his humilitie & modeſtie before God, and teacheth all men, what thei ſhulde do.
¶ A ſong of degrees or Pſalme of Dauid.
1.LOrd, mine heart is not hawtie, nether are mine eies loftie, nether haue I walked in great matters and hid from me.
2.Surely I haue behaued my ſelf, like one wained frō his mother, and kept ſilence: I am in my ſelf as one that is wained.
3.Let Iſraél waite on the Lord from hence forthe and for euer.
