What God did on Earth's first fourth day.

Replenish is refill.
From Webster's 1828. It is the best balance I can find between modern English and the English used at the time of translation.
Maybe those who hail from a location closer to the translators can suggest a better dictionary?

In 1828, the word simply meant to fill abundantly.

REPLEN'ISH, v.t. L. re and plenus, full.

1. To fill; to stock with numbers or abundance. The magazines are replenished with corn. The springs are replenished with water.

Multiply and replenish the earth. Gen. 1.

2. To finish; to complete. Not in use.

REPLEN'ISH, v.i. To recover former fullness.

Replenish is refill, I will find more evidence later.
