SIBI-P1 H7646-20
she was sated
| Root | שבע (š-b-ʿ) |
| Core Meanings | fullness, satiety, sufficiency, satisfaction, abundance |
| Semantic Range | to be filled with food, to have enough, to be satisfied, to experience abundance, to be weary from excess, satiety or fullness (noun) |
| Conceptual Significance | The root conveys the covenantal motif of divine provision and human satisfaction—whether physical (food, land) or metaphorical (justice, goodness). It can express both blessing through abundance and the complacency that may follow being fully satisfied. |
| Morphological Notes | Primarily Qal perfect 3fs (HVqp3fs), indicating a completed action or state of fullness experienced by a feminine singular subject; also attested as a common feminine singular noun (HNcfsa) meaning "satiety" or "fullness." |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal perfect 3rd feminine singular form denotes a completed state of being filled to satisfaction. "She was sated" preserves the feminine singular subject and reflects the root idea of reaching fullness or sufficiency. |
