Psalms 3:2 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

My soul — Of me: the soul being commonly put for the person. In God — God hath utterly forsaken him. Selah — This word is no where used but in this poetical book, and in the song of Habakkuk. Probably it was a musical note, directing the singer either to lift up his voice, to make a pause, or to lengthen the tune. But withal, it is generally placed at some remarkable passage; which gives occasion to think that it served also to quicken the attention of the singer and hearer.

Psalms 3:2

2 Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah.
