Could you help me?

Watching the TV drama, "Heroes" with a subtitle, I found out a sentence which I could hardly understand.

Could you explain the meaning of the following sentence to me? I would like to know what should be the subject of "plying".

Thank you.

"These hands were meant for a softer trade plying out the demons that haunt men's souls."

(I took it from "Heroes 4x14.")

Hi,

Watching the TV drama, "Heroes" with a subtitle, I found out a sentence which I could hardly understand.

Could you explain the meaning of the following sentence to me? I would like to know what should be the subject of "plying". Hands. But 'plying' makes no sense here. It should be 'prying'.

Thank you.
