How will Jesus bring justice to victory?

Matthieu 12:20 (NEG79)

20 Il ne brisera point le roseau cassé,Et il n'éteindra point le lumignon qui fume,Jusqu'à ce qu'il ait fait triompher la justice.

En bref

The words bring justice to victory (1 Corinthians 15:54) refer to Christ’s triumph at his return, after which no more resistance is possible, and justice (krisin) comes in God’s judgment (Matthew 12:18), making God’s decisive Word and will (Philippians 2:11) known to all.

The phrase bring justice to victory (1 Corinthians 15:54) refers to the final triumph at his second coming—that is, the glorious completion of his messianic work. Once Christ has triumphed, no further attack is possible, and justice (krisin) refers to the judgment of God (Matthew 12:18), wherein the decisive Word and will of God (Philippians 2:11) will be made known to all.1
