A Hebrew word that occurs four times, but in the A.V. is only once untranslated. This is in Psalm 9:16 , where the margin reads 'that is, meditation .' It is thought by some to refer to a musical sign or instrument. Literally it means 'the sound of a harp when struck.' In Psalm 19:14 the word is translated 'meditation;' in Psalm 92:3 , 'solemn sound;' and in Lamentations 3:62 , 'device.'
