thirsty

The masculine singular form identifies people needing water in concrete situations: in Isaiah 21:14 the APB renders the command, "Bring water to the thirsty," and in Proverbs 25:21 it pairs an enemy's need for water with food for the hungry. In Isaiah 32:6, the thirsty are deprived of drink; in Psalm 107:5, the masculine plural form occurs in a clause where hungry and thirsty people grow faint. Isaiah 29:8 uses the same condition in the image of someone who dreams of drinking but awakens faint.
In the Anselm Project Bible: Across the supplied verses, the APB presents the condition with "thirsty" or "thirsts," and connects it with water, drink, faintness, or a call to the waters. These renderings confirm the clauses' overall presentation rather than supplying a separate definition.
