The word 'sela' is usually used for a female. It is spelt as se'lah. It has its origin in Hebrew and means rock or cliff. Thus, it connotes strength or rigidity or stubbornness. It is an alternative of the name Selena meaning moon. In Bible, this name means Hallelujah. Sela is a place and capital of Edom.

This word also appears in Bible and Tanach. It is considered that this word sela does not have any translation. It is accepted by some as a poetic meter to create a flow of words. In Ibn Ezra, the word sela connotes 'truth'. It also means 'so it is'. In Talmud, the word sela means 'going on forever' or 'not having an end'.
