What does "서세요" mean? (did I conjugate it correctly)?

does it mean "it stops"?

I'm not sure if I conjugated it correctly? I believe it is the most honorific suffix?

I started with 서다

then 서시다

then 서시어요

then 서세요

Update:

does it means "it stands"?

In my Korean language book it says the infinitive is stop, but I guess stand is another meaning

    멈춰서세요, 서세요 : both are acceptable

    stop (walking), hold it right there,

    서세요, 일어서세요

    stand up

    this is an imperative sentence without a specific subject.

    And like you said, 서세요 is honorific suffix, but we don't use 서시다.
