Moab - This is fallen from Psalm 60:8. The only change is in the close of the verse. Instead of "Plilistia, triumph thou because of me" Psalm 60:8, it is here, "Over Philistia will I triumph." Why the change was made is unknown.

Over Philistia will I triumph,.... In Psalm 60:8, it is, "Philistia, triumph thou because of me"; See Gill on Psalm 60:8.
