psalms 131:1 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. - Free Bible Online

psalms 131:1 [A Song of Ascents, of David]. O Lord, my heart is not proud, nor my eyes haughty; Nor do I involve myself in great matters, Or in things too difficult for me.


      Ps 131:1-3. This Psalm, while expressive of David's pious feelings on assuming the royal office, teaches the humble, submissive temper of a true child of God.

      1. eyes lofty--a sign of pride (Ps 18:27).
      exercise myself--literally, "walk in," or "meddle with."

JFB.
