The principal variations are in Psalms 108:3, Jehovah for Adonai.

In Psalms 108:6 the construction is changed to suit the new arrangement and the variation in Psalms 108:10, on which see Note, Psalms 60:8. For the authorship of the parts of which the psalm is composed, see their Introductions. The ascription of the composite production to David furnishes a strong presumption against the historical value of the inscriptions.
