Exegesis
In the first, the coordinated subjects sheol {שְׁאוֹל | šêʾôl} ‘underworld realm’ and abaddon {אֲבַדּוֹ | ’ă-bad-dôʾn} ‘destruction place’ share the negative predicate lo {לֹא | lōʾ} ‘not’ plus the Qal imperfect tiśbannâ {תִשְׂבַּעְנָה | tiś-bāʿ-nāʾ} ‘are satisfied,’ emphasizing unending consumption.
In context — Proverbs 27:20
Sheol and Abaddon are never satisfied; the eyes of man are never satisfied.
