I Have Stilled My Soul

Psalm subtitle:A song of ascents. Of David.

Verse1My heart is not proud, O LORD, my eyes are not haughty. I do not aspire to great things or matters too lofty for me.

Verse2Surely I have stilled and quieted my soul; like a weaned child with his mother, like a weaned child is my soul within me.

Verse3O Israel, put your hope in the LORD, both now and forevermore.

Study with care

Who is speaking, to whom, and why? Read the surrounding chapters. Distinguish what the text says from your interpretation and application, then discuss it with a trusted person in your church.

The JSON packet includes the full chapter, translator notes, source date, and permissions for content preparation. Teaching prepared from it still needs human review.
