Psalms 119:20 - Ellicott's Commentary On The Whole Bible

Bible Comments

Breaketh. — The Hebrew is peculiar to this place and Lamentations 3:16. The LXX., Vulg., and Aquila have “greatly desired;” Symmachus, “was perfect;” Theodotion, “had confidence;” Jerome, “longed,” all which point either to a different reading or to a different sense from that which is given in the lexicons to the word.

Psalms 119:20
