Context of Psalms 108:9
7God has spoken in his sanctuary: “I will triumph! I will parcel out Shechem, the valley of Succoth I will measure off. 8Gilead belongs to me, as does Manasseh! Ephraim is my helmet, Judah my royal scepter. Moab is my wash basin. I will make Edom serve me. I will shout in triumph over Philistia.” 10Who will lead me into the fortified city? Who will bring me to Edom? 11Have you not rejected us, O God? O God, you do not go into battle with our armies.

- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 9Moab - This is fallen from Psalm 60:8. The only change is in the close of the verse. Instead of “Plilistia, triumph thou because of me” Psalm 60:8, it is here, “Over Philistia will I triumph.” Why the change was made is unknown.Read the comment
