Sforno on Leviticus 25:20/ספורנו על ויקרא כ״ה:כ׳

אוְכִי תֹאמְרוּ מַה נֹּאכַל. וְכַאֲשֶׁר יְסֻפַּק זֶה אֶצְלְכֶם וְלֹא תִבְטְחוּ שֶׁיִּהְיֶה הַמְּעַט מַסְּפִיק בְּאֵיכוּתוֹ.
1וכי תאמרו מה נאכל, when you raise doubts about this promise which I have made you, asking that you would not have enough to eat because you cannot believe that the quality of such food would compensate for its lack of quantity.
