Contextual Overview

¹ Confesse you [it] vnto God: for he is gratious, and his mercy endureth for euer. ² Let such as God did redeme speake: whom he hath redeemed from the hande of the enemie. ³ And whom he gathered out of the landes: from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south. ⁴ They went astray out of the way in solitarines [and] in wildernes, and found no citie to dwell in: ⁵ they were hungry and thirstie, their soule fainted in them. ⁶ And they cry vnto god in their trouble: who deliuereth them fro their distresse. ⁷ And he leadeth them foorth by the right way: that they might go to the citie inhabited. ⁸ O that men would confesse vnto God his louyng kindnesse: and his marueylous actes [done] to the chyldren of men. ⁹ For he satisfieth the greedie soule: and filleth the hungry soule with goodnes.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Hungry and thirsty,.... As travellers in deserts sometimes are; their provisions being spent they bring with them, and none to be had on the road; there being no inns to stop at, nor any sort of food to eat, nor springs of water to drink of. In such a condition are souls, when, like the prodigal, they come to themselves, and are thoroughly convinced of their state and condition by nature; they find themselves starving and famishing, and no provision to be had from themselves or the creature: they hunger after Christ, the bread of life, and thirst after his grace, the water of life, and the blessings of it; they hunger and thirst after his righteousness, and justification by it; after the pardon of their sins through his blood, and after salvation by him, and an interest in it; after more knowledge of him, and communion with him.

Their soul fainted in them; for want of food and drink; as men do, in a spiritual sense, for want of Christ, the blessings of his grace, particularly salvation; for want of views of interest in it, of the joys and comforts of it; see Psalms 119:81. Some refer all this to the apostles and apostolic men, wandering in the Gentile world, hungry, thirsty, and without any certain dwelling place; see 1 Corinthians 4:11.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Hungry and thirsty - As they would be, when wandering in such a desert. A more literal and expressive rendering would be, “Hungry - also thirsty.”

Their soul fainted in them - The word used here - עטף ‛âṭaph - means properly to cover, to clothe, as with a garment, Psalms 73:6; or a field with grain, Psalms 65:13; then, to hide oneself, Job 23:9; then, to cover with darkness, Psalms 77:3; Psalms 102:0, title; thus it denotes the state of mind when darkness seems to be in the way - a way of calamity, trouble, sorrow; of weakness, faintness, feebleness. Here it would seem from the connection to refer to the exhaustion produced by the want of food and drink.
