'Weakeneth' in the Bible

and Joshua weakeneth Amalek and his people by the mouth of the sword.

He weakeneth the government of kings, and bindeth their loins with a fetter;

He poureth contempt upon princes, and weakeneth the strength of the mighty.

Therefore the princes said unto the king, We beseech thee, let this man be put to death: for thus he weakeneth the hands of the men of war that remain in this city, and the hands of all the people, in speaking such words unto them: for this man seeketh not the welfare of this people, but the hurt.
