The Bible in Basic English BBE
Good News Translation GNT
1 <A Song of the going up. Of David.> Lord, there is no pride in my heart and my eyes are not lifted up; and I have not taken part in great undertakings, or in things over-hard for me.
1
Lord, I have given up my pride and turned away from my arrogance. I am not concerned with great matters or with subjects too difficult for me.
2 See, I have made my soul calm and quiet, like a child on its mother's breast; my soul is like a child on its mother's breast.
2
Instead, I am content and at peace. As a child lies quietly in its mother's arms, so my heart is quiet within me.
3 O Israel, have hope in the Lord, from this time and for ever.
3
Israel, trust in the Lord now and forever!
