The Bible in Basic English BBE
1 A song of ascents. By David: ADONAI, my heart isn't proud; I don't set my sight too high, I don't take part in great affairs or in wonders far beyond me.
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.
2 No, I keep myself calm and quiet, like a little child on its mother's lap -I keep myself like a little child.
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.
3 Isra'el, put your hope in ADONAI from now on and forever!
3
O Israel, have hope in the Lord, from this time and for ever.
