I will offer bullocks with goats;
he proposed to offer all kind of offerings, to show gratitude and thankfulness for the favours received; by all which are meant the calves, or fruit of the lips, the sacrifices of praise, thanksgiving to God, in the name of the whole church and people of God; see ( Revelation 19:1-7 ) .

Selah; on this word, (See Gill on Psalms 3:2).
