Psalm 131 — Compared

King James Version and American Standard Version, side by side.

King James Version (KJV)

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.

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

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

American Standard Version (ASV)

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

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

3O Israel, hope in Jehovah From this time forth and for evermore. Psalm 132 A Song of Ascents.
