The Vulgate (Jerome's Latin Bible, 390-405 A.D.) says, "David had offered a reward on that day to the man who should smite the Jebusite and reach the water pipes of the houses, and remove the blind and lame who hated David's soul."

The unfitness of the lame for warfare gives point to the promise that the lame shall take the prey ( Isaiah 33:23). In the prophetic description of the completeness of the victory of the returning Israelites, it is predicted that the lame shall be made whole and shall leap like a hart ( Jeremiah 3:18 Isaiah 35:6). (2) Those who suffered from lameness, such as Mephibosheth, whose limbs were injured by a fall in childhood ( 2 Samuel 4:4 2 Samuel 9:3).
