02.131. Psalm 131

Psalms 131:1-3 A Song of degrees of David. This psalm contains, (1.) David’s candid profession of his contentment with his lot, Psalms 131:1-2. (2.) His warm encouragement of others to a constant dependence on God, Psalms 131:3.

While I sing it, let me be ashamed of my pride, and of meddling with things above my sphere. Let me desire humility, as my great ornament, in every station; and study, like a child of God, weaned from worldly lusts, to set all my hope on God himself.
