Psalm 59:15

Let them wander up and down for meat, and grudge if they be not satisfied.

Let them wander up and down for meat,.... Like hungry dogs;

and grudge if they be not satisfied; or murmur and howl as dogs when hungry, and can find nothing to eat; or "when they shall not be satisfied, and shall lodge" {z}; when they shall get nothing to satisfy their hungry appetite, and shall go to bed without a supper, and lie all night without food. The Targum is,

"they shall wander about to seize the prey to eat, and will not rest till the are satisfied, and will lie all night;''

that is, in quest of prey.


{z} wnylyw "nec satiati cubabunt", Tigurine version; "famelici pernoctabunt", Michaelis.
