Context of Psalms 60:8
6God has spoken in His holiness: “I will exult, I will portion out Shechem and measure out the valley of Succoth. 7Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine; Ephraim also is the helmet of My head; Judah is My scepter. Moab is My washbowl; Over Edom I shall throw My shoe; Shout loud, O Philistia, because of Me!” 9Who will bring me into the besieged city?

Commentaries on Psalms 60:8
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 8Moab is my washpot - The Moabites shall be reduced to the meanest slavery.

Taking courage from God's promise to give them possession (Ex 23:31; De 11:24) (and perhaps renewed to him by special revelation), with triumphant joy he describes the conquest as already made.
