Psalms 108:8-13

8 Gil'ad is mine and M'nasheh mine, Efrayim my helmet, Y'hudah my scepter.
9 Mo'av is my washpot; on Edom I throw my shoe; Over P'leshet I shout in triumph."
10 Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom?
11 God, have you rejected us? You don't go out with our armies, God.
12 Help us against our enemy, for human help is worthless.
13 With God's help we will fight valiantly, for he will trample our enemies.

Psalms 108:8-13 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO PSALM 108

\\<>\\. This psalm consists of several passages out of the fifty seventh and sixtieth psalms, with very little variation. Jarchi and Kimchi refer it to the times of the Messiah. The title in the Syriac version is, ``concerning the calling of the Gentiles,'' to which, no doubt, it has respect.
