5:6 Then the king and his men advanced to Jerusalem7 against the Jebusites who lived in the land. The Jebusites8 said to David, “You cannot invade this place! Even the blind and the lame will turn you back, saying, ‘David cannot invade this place!’ ”
tn The Hebrew text has “he” rather than “the Jebusites.” The referent has been specified in the translation for clarity. In the SyriacPeshitta and some mss of the Targum the verb is plural rather than singular.
