Context of Psalms 106:14
12Then believed they his words; they sang his praise. 13They soon forgot his works; they waited not for his counsel: And they lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and tempted God in the desert. 15Then he gave them their request, but sent leanness into their soul. 16And they envied Moses in the camp, [and] Aaron, the saint of Jehovah.

- Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 13-1513-15. The faith induced by God's display of power in their behalf was short lived, and their new rebellion and temptation was visited by God with fresh punishment, inflicted by leaving them to the result of their own gratified appetites, and sending on them spiritual poverty (Nu 11:18). They soon forgat--literally, "They hasted, they forgat" (compare Ex 32:8). "They have turned aside quickly (or, hastily) out of the way." The haste of our desires is such…Read the comment
