Psalm 108:8 In-Context
6
And for the sake of the one you love so much, reach down and help me - answer me!
7
That's when God spoke in holy splendor: "Brimming over with joy, I make a present of Shechem, I hand out Succoth Valley as a gift.
8
Gilead's in my pocket, to say nothing of Manasseh. Ephraim's my hard hat, Judah my hammer.
9
Moab's a scrub bucket - I mop the floor with Moab, Spit on Edom, rain fireworks all over Philistia."
10
Who will take me to the thick of the fight? Who'll show me the road to Edom?
