Psalm 108:7-9
New International Reader's Version
7 God has spoken from his temple.
He has said, “I will win the battle.
Then I will divide up the land around Shechem.
I will divide up the Valley of Sukkoth.
8 Gilead belongs to me, and so does the land of Manasseh.
Ephraim is the strongest tribe. It is like a helmet for my head.
Judah is the royal tribe. It is like a ruler’s scepter.
9 Moab serves me like one who washes my feet.
I toss my sandal on Edom to show that I own it.
I shout to Philistia that I have won the battle.”

8 Gilead is mine, Manasseh is mine;
Ephraim is my helmet,
Judah(E) is my scepter.
9 Moab(F) is my washbasin,
on Edom(G) I toss my sandal;
over Philistia(H) I shout in triumph.”
