Psalms 106:15

(15) Leanness.—The LXX., Vulg., and Syriac read “satiety.” As Mr. Burgess points out, by accepting this reading, and giving nephesh its very usual signification of “lust” (comp. Psalms 78:18, where also the word rendered “request” occurs) we get two exact synthetical clauses:—

“And he gave them their request,

And sent satiety for their lust.”
