Gill's Notes on the Bible
The robbery of the wicked shall destroy them,.... Or cut them, so Ben Melech: dissect or "saw" s them; cut them to the heart; that is, when the sins they have been guilty of, in robbing God of his due, or doing injury to men in their properties, cheating them or stealing from them, are set home on their consciences, they are in the utmost agonies and distress; it is as if a saw was drawn to and fro over them, and will be their case for ever without true repentance: this is the worm that never dies, and the fire that is never quenched; this is everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and is very just and righteous;
because they refuse to do judgment; to do that which is just between man and man, to let everyone enjoy his own property: as it is true of private robbers, so of men in public offices, whose business it is to defend men in the quiet possession of property; which, if they refuse to do, as it is a refusal to do judgment, it is in effect a robbery of them; and will be charged on their consciences at one time or another.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Robbery - Probably the “violence” which the wicked practice.
Shall destroy them - More literally, carries them away.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Proverbs 21:7. The robbery of the wicked — The wicked shall be terrified and ruined by the means they use to aggrandize themselves. And as they refuse to do judgment, they shall have judgment without mercy.
