selah <2KI14 -7> He slew of Edom in the valley of salt ten
thousand,
and took {Selah} by war, and called the name of it Joktheel unto
this day.
selah Many [there be] which say of my soul, [There is]
no
help for him in God. {Selah}.
selah I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and he
heard me
out of his holy hill. {Selah}.
selah Salvation [belongeth] unto the LORD: thy blessing
[is] upon thy people. {Selah}.
selah O ye sons of men, how long [will ye turn] my
glory
into shame? [how long] will ye love vanity, [and] seek after
leasing? {Selah}.
selah Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own
heart upon your bed, and be still. {Selah}.
selah Let the enemy persecute my soul, and take [it];
yea,
let him tread down my life upon the earth, and lay mine honour in
the dust. {Selah}.
selah The LORD is known [by] the judgment [which] he
executeth: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands.
Higgaion. {Selah}.
selah Put them in fear, O LORD: [that] the nations may
know themselves [to be but] men. {Selah}.
selah Remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt
sacrifice; {Selah}.
selah Thou hast given him his heart's desire, and hast
not withholden the request of his lips. {Selah}.
selah This [is] the generation of them that seek him,
that seek thy face, O Jacob. {Selah}.
selah Who is this King of glory? The LORD of hosts,
he
[is] the King of glory. {Selah}.
selah For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: my
moisture is turned into the drought of summer. {Selah}.
selah I acknowledged my sin unto thee, and mine
iniquity
have I not hid. I said, I will confess my transgressions unto the
LORD; and thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. {Selah}.
selah Thou [art] my hiding place; thou shalt preserve
me
from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of
deliverance.
{Selah}.
selah Behold, thou hast made my days [as] an
handbreadth;
and mine age [is] as nothing before thee: verily every man at his
best state [is] altogether vanity. {Selah}.
selah When thou with rebukes dost correct man for
iniquity, thou makest his beauty to consume away like a moth:
surely
every man [is] vanity. {Selah}.
selah In God we boast all the day long, and praise thy
name for ever. {Selah}.
selah Though] the waters thereof roar [and] be
troubled,
[though] the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. {Selah}.
selah The LORD of hosts [is] with us; the God of Jacob
[is] our refuge. {Selah}.
selah The LORD of hosts [is] with us; the God of
Jacob
[is] our refuge. {Selah}.
selah He shall choose our inheritance for us, the
excellency of Jacob whom he loved. {Selah}.
selah As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of
the LORD of hosts, in the city of our God: God will establish it
for
ever. {Selah}.
selah This their way [is] their folly: yet their
posterity approve their sayings. {Selah}.
selah But God will redeem my soul from the power of
the
grave: for he shall receive me. {Selah}.
selah And the heavens shall declare his righteousness:
for God [is] judge himself. {Selah}.
selah Thou lovest evil more than good; [and] lying
rather
than to speak righteousness. {Selah}.
selah God shall likewise destroy thee for ever, he
shall
take thee away, and pluck thee out of [thy] dwelling place, and
root
thee out of the land of the living. {Selah}.
selah For strangers are risen up against me, and
oppressors seek after my soul: they have not set God before them.
{Selah}.
selah Lo, [then] would I wander far off, [and] remain
in
the wilderness. {Selah}.
selah God shall hear, and afflict them, even he that
abideth of old. {Selah}. Because they have no changes, therefore
they fear not God.
selah He shall send from heaven, and save me [from]
the
reproach of him that would swallow me up. {Selah}. God shall send
forth his mercy and his truth.
selah They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul
is
bowed down: they have digged a pit before me, into the midst
whereof
they are fallen [themselves]. {Selah}.
selah Thou therefore, O LORD God of hosts, the God of
Israel, awake to visit all the heathen: be not merciful to any
wicked transgressors. {Selah}.
selah Consume [them] in wrath, consume [them], that
they
[may] not [be]: and let them know that God ruleth in Jacob unto
the
ends of the earth. {Selah}.
selah Thou hast given a banner to them that fear thee,
that it may be displayed because of the truth. {Selah}.
selah I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will
trust in the covert of thy wings. {Selah}.
selah They only consult to cast [him] down from his
excellency: they delight in lies: they bless with their mouth,
but
they curse inwardly. {Selah}.
selah Trust in him at all times; [ye] people, pour out
your heart before him: God [is] a refuge for us. {Selah}.
selah All the earth shall worship thee, and shall sing
unto thee; they shall sing [to] thy name. {Selah}.
selah He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyes behold
the nations: let not the rebellious exalt themselves. {Selah}.
selah I will offer unto thee burnt sacrifices of
fatlings, with the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with
goats. {Selah}.
selah To the chief Musician on Neginoth, A Psalm [or]
Song. God be merciful unto us, and bless us; [and] cause his
face to
shine upon us; {Selah}.
selah O let the nations be glad and sing for joy: for
thou shalt judge the people righteously, and govern the nations
upon
earth. {Selah}.
selah O God, when thou wentest forth before thy
people,
when thou didst march through the wilderness; {Selah}:
selah Blessed [be] the Lord, [who] daily loadeth us
[with benefits,even] the God of our salvation. {Selah}.
selah Sing unto God, ye kingdoms of the earth; O sing
praises unto the Lord; {Selah}:
selah The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are
dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it. {Selah}.
selah There brake he the arrows of the bow, the
shield,
and the sword, and the battle. {Selah}.
selah When God arose to judgment, to save all the
meek of
the earth. {Selah}.
selah I remembered God, and was troubled: I
complained,
and my spirit was overwhelmed. {Selah}.
selah Hath God forgotten to be gracious? hath he in
anger
shut up his tender mercies? {Selah}.
selah Thou hast with [thine] arm redeemed thy people,
the sons of Jacob and Joseph. {Selah}.
selah Thou calledst in trouble, and I delivered thee;
I
answered thee in the secret place of thunder: I proved thee at
the
waters of Meribah. {Selah}.
selah How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the
persons of the wicked? {Selah}.
selah Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen
the children of Lot. {Selah}.
selah Blessed [are] they that dwell in thy house: they
will be still praising thee. {Selah}.
selah O LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer: give ear, O
God of Jacob. {Selah}.
selah Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people,
thou
hast covered all their sin. {Selah}.
selah Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of
God.
{selah}.
selah The LORD shall count, when he writeth up the
people, [that] this [man] was born there. {Selah}.
selah Thy wrath lieth hard upon me, and thou hast
afflicted [me] with all thy waves. {Selah}.
selah Wilt thou show wonders to the dead? shall the
dead
arise [and] praise thee? {Selah}.
selah Thy seed will I establish for ever, and build up
thy throne to all generations. {Selah}.
selah It shall be established for ever as the moon,
and
[as] a faithful witness in heaven. {Selah}.
selah The days of his youth hast thou shortened: thou
hast covered him with shame. {Selah}.
selah What man [is he that] liveth, and shall not see
death? shall he deliver his soul from the hand of the grave?
{Selah}.
selah They have sharpened their tongues like a
serpent;
adders' poison [is] under their lips. {Selah}.
selah The proud have hid a snare for me, and cords;
they
have spread a net by the wayside; they have set gins for me.
{Selah}.
selah Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked:
further not his wicked device; [lest] they exalt themselves.
{Selah}.
selah I stretch forth my hands unto thee: my soul
[thirsteth] after thee, as a thirsty land. {Selah}.
selah God came from Teman, and the Holy One from mount
Paran. {Selah}. His glory covered the heavens, and the earth was
full of his praise.
selah Thy bow was made quite naked, [according] to the
oaths of the tribes, [even thy] word. {Selah}. Thou didst cleave
the
earth with rivers.
selah Thou wentest forth for the salvation of thy
people,
[even] for salvation with thine anointed; thou woundedst the head
out of the house of the wicked, by discovering the foundation
unto
the neck. {Selah}.
