Exegesis
The verse begins by fronting the object noun phrase periyamo {פְּרִיָּמוֹ | pərîyyāmô} ‘fruit’ with its locative me’erets {מֵאֶרֶץ | mēʾereṣ} ‘from the earth’ before the verb teabed {תְּאַבֵּד | təʾabbed} in the intensive Piel stem, highlighting what is to be eradicated.
In context — Psalm 21:10
You will destroy their fruit from the earth, and their seed from among the sons of man.
