Psalms 92:13

11 ^aMy eye also has seen my desire on my enemies;
My ears hear my desire on the wicked
Who rise up against me.

12 ^aThe righteous shall flourish like a palm tree,
He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

13 Those who are planted in the house of the Lord
Shall flourish in the courts of our God.

14 They shall still bear fruit in old age;
They shall be¹ fresh and flourishing,

15 To declare that the Lord is upright;
^aHe is my rock, and ^bthere is no unrighteousness in Him.

What Does Psalms 92:13 Mean?

Psalm 92:13

The psalmist repeats the word "flourish" (Hebrew parach), which can be translated as "bud," "blossom," "grow," "sprout," "fly," and "spring up." In the Old Testament, "the courts of our God" refers to God's physical Temple, an earthly symbol of His heavenly throne room. In the New Testament, the term refers now to God's church and prophetically to the time when the Father and Christ will reign on the earth (Revelation 7:15; 21:3). We should thank God, then, for "planting" us in His church where we can grow abundantly in preparation for that future time when we will work and rule with Him forever.
