Psalms 21:10

Psa 21:10 Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.

Ver. 10. Their fruit shalt thou destroy ] i.e. Their labour, and that which comes thereof, Proverbs 21:16 ; Proverbs 21:31 ; they shall toil to no purpose; the gains shall not pay for the pains, Nulla emolumenta laborum (Juven.).

And their seed ] For as personal goodness is profitable to posterity; so on the contrary; as in the second commandment: they are peremptores potius quam parentes (Bern.).
