4 Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, to the testimony of Israel, to give thanks to the name of the LORD.

5 For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David.

6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.

7 Peace be within thy walls, [and] prosperity within thy palaces.

8 For my brethren and companions' sake, I will now say, Peace [be] within thee.

9 Because of the house of the LORD our God I will seek thy good.
