Break thou the arm of the wicked— i.e. "Deprive them of all power to do mischief." Mudge renders the next clause, Seek out his wickedness, &c.—Pursue his wickedness, so that thou find none left: properly, "Sit in judgment upon it, so that there be none left to be found: till there remains nothing to punish." Others say that the clause is, "Destroy him utterly, or so subdue him as to put it out of his power to do hurt;" which very well agrees with the former clause. Houbigant renders it, Seek out for his iniquity, that it may not prevail.
