This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
satisfy ... in drought - (Isa 41:17, Isa 41:18). Literally, “drought,” that is, parched places [Maurer].
make fat - rather, “strengthen” [Noyes]. “Give thee the free use of thy bones” [Jerome], or, “of thy strength” [Horsley].
watered garden - an Oriental picture of happiness.
fail not - Hebrew, “deceive not”; as streams that disappoint the caravan which had expected to find water, as formerly, but find it dried up (Job 6:15-17).
