6 That your beloved may be delivered, Save with your right hand, and answer us.
7 God has spoken from his sanctuary: "In triumph, I will divide Shechem, and measure out the valley of Succoth.
8 Gilead is mine. Manasseh is mine. Ephraim also is my helmet. Judah is my scepter.
9 Moab is my wash pot. I will toss my sandal on Edom. I will shout over Philistia."
10 Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who has led me to Edom?
11 Haven't you rejected us, God? You don't go forth, God, with our armies.
12 Give us help against the enemy, For the help of man is vain.
13 Through God, we will do valiantly. For it is he who will tread down our enemies.

Commentary on Psalms 108 Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
PSALM 108
Ps 108:1-13. This Psalm is composed of Ps 108:1-5 of Ps 57:7-11; and Ps 108:6-12 of Ps 60:5-12. The varieties are verbal and trivial, except that in Ps 108:9, "over Philistia will I triumph," differs from Ps 60:8, the interpretation of which it confirms. Its altogether triumphant tone may intimate that it was prepared by David, omitting the plaintive portions of the other Psalms, as commemorative of God's favor in the victories of His people.
