What is a                ???

A “Selah” is   Biblical musical term! Many Psalms would have the term “Selah” written in them – seventy one times in Psalms and three times in the book of Habbakuk. They would describe the type of instrumental music to be placed with a particular Psalm during the time David was king!


Various meanings of SELAH:

1. A short recurring symphony (ritornello)

2. A pause, or silence

3. Repetition

4. The end of a strophe

5. Playing with full power (Fortissimo)

6. The bending of the body

7. To meditate


Psa 47:4-6  He chose our inheritance for us, the pride of Jacob, whom he loved. Selah 5  God has ascended amid shouts of joy, the LORD amid the sounding of trumpets. 6  Sing praises (zamar) to God, sing praises; sing praises to our King, sing praises.


Psa 61:1-4  To the chief Musician upon Neginah, A Psalm of David. Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer.2  From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I. 3  For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy. 4  I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of thy wings. Selah.
