David said, "Those who attack the Jebusites
David was speaking to his soldiers. Alternate translation: "David said to his soldiers, 'Those who want to get rid of the Jebus people"
The 'blind and the lame'
These words could be either 1) a literal reference to people who are truly lame and blind or 2) a metonym that speaks about the Jebusites inside the city of Jerusalem as if they were all weak and handicapped. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy)
