Seeking wonders beyond me

Could it be that I am seeking wisdom & understanding that I am not entitled to? Why can I not be content with what I do see? -- with what I do understand? I was led to these questions by reading Psalm 130 in the translation used by Universalis (I don't know which one that is).

Lord, I do not puff myself up or stare about,
or walk among the great or seek wonders beyond me.

Should I not be content with the knowledge God has chosen to let me have?

Truly calm and quiet I have made my spirit:
quiet as a weaned child in its mother's arms --
like an infant is my soul.
