ἐχορτάσθητε: [6 verses](2nd pl aor ind pass) "Were filled" is from chortazo, which means "feed", "fatten" and "to eat their fill." It is a term most commonly used for cattle. - -- The Greek word translated in this version as "filled" also means "to satisfy" with a close association with the physical satisfaction of eating. Jesus uses a bit of humor here, choosing a word that is usually applied to cattle, specifically the fattening of cattle. There is another potential take that may or may not work, that is, interpreting this as "get their fill."
