第十三復有眾生。攣躄背僂腰臗不隨脚跛手拘不能操涉。何罪所致。佛言。以前世時坐為人野田行道安槍。或安射窠。施張弶穽。陷墜眾生。頭破脚折。傷損非一。故獲斯罪。

Thirteenth, there are also sentient beings who are crippled, lame, hunchbacked, paralyzed in hips and waist, lame in the legs, and curled in the hands so that they cannot manage tasks or travel. What transgression caused this? The Buddha said: In their past lives, as humans, they set up spears along pathways in open fields, planted shooting pits, and laid snares and pitfall traps, plunging sentient beings into them so that their heads were crushed and their feet broken, injuring them in countless ways. Therefore, they incurred this retribution.
