Psalm 60:7-9
EasyEnglish Bible
7 Gilead belongs to me,
and so does Manasseh.
Ephraim is like my helmet for war.
Judah has the authority of my royal sceptre.[a]
8 But Moab is the place where I wash my hands.
Edom is my servant.
I can throw my shoes at him!
I will shout loudly,
because I have won against the Philistines.’[b]
9 Who will lead me into the strong city?
Who will take me to fight and win against Edom?[c]
