Context of Psalms 108:9
7God has spoken in His holiness: “I will rejoice; I will divide Shechem And measure out the Valley of Succoth. 8Gilead is Mine; Manasseh is Mine; Ephraim also is the helmet for My head; Judah is My lawgiver. Moab is My washpot; Over Edom I will cast My shoe; Over Philistia I will triumph.” 10Who will bring me into the strong city? Who will lead me to Edom? 11Is it not You, O God, who cast us off? And You, O God, who did not go out with our armies?
