Modulus is correct on this.
The Oxford English Dictionary states that the word was used to mean "fill" from the 13th to 17th centuries. It never meant to "re-fill" during this time period. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the first recorded use of the word replenish to mean to fill again occurred in 1612, one year after the King James Version was published.
The Hebrew word translated here means "to fill".
