Psalms
The Psalter is Israel’s hymnbook: lament, praise, thanksgiving, royal psalms, and wisdom. It trains the heart to speak to God in trouble and in joy, and it points ahead to the Messiah.
Douay-Rheims 1899
Psalms 130
1Lord, my heart is not exalted: nor are my eyes lofty. Neither have I walked in great matters, nor in wonderful things above me. 2If I was not humbly minded, but exalted my soul: As a child that is weaned is towards his mother, so reward in my soul. 3Let Israel hope in the Lord, from henceforth now and for ever.
