Mishael's comment on 2020-11-30 06:57:32:
It means, Pause and think on these things.

Just correcting a spelling error: it should have been written as "to lift up or to exalt". Apologies.
Chris's comment on 2020-11-29 14:53:27:
The interpretation of Selah is not certain. We know that when it is used in the Psalter, it's often used in Psalms that are sung or of praise to God. Therefore, it can mean "to life up or to exalt" as an ending to some declaration. Or, it could be a direction or musical notation to the singers to "pause, be silent or become louder or softer according to the musical director". So, one cannot be certain as to its meaning or even how the Jews today view that word or if they take much notice of it in their readings.
