Things that didn’t kill you could leave you maimed, or deaf and blind, or just plain crazy.
То, что не убивает, может покалечить, оглушить, ослепить или просто свести с ума.

He stays in the town only because some accident or predator has maimed him, tearing off all but one leg from his left side, so that he can no longer hunt even the sluggish fish of Iron Bay.
Он живет здесь только потому, что из-за несчастного случая или нападения хищника остался калекой - лишился с одной стороны почти всех ног, так что теперь не может охотиться даже на ленивую рыбу Железного залива.

I was in my own room as usual- just myself, without obvious change: nothing had smitten me, or scathed me, or maimed me.
Я сидела в своей комнате, как обычно, такая же, как и была, без всякой видимой перемены. Я не была замарана, оскорблена, унижена.

With the demon influence, his mutated seconds mangled their victims—maiming, nearly destroying them.
Жертвы его второго поколения – мутантов-полудемонов – искромсаны так, что смотреть на них страшно. Эти твари так зверски уродуют трупы, что буквально раздирают их в клочья.

It was devastating the Inuit, a curse winding its way down the generations, killing and maiming along the way - through violence, suicides, drownings, spousal abuse, birth defects, and fetal alcohol syndrome.
Эта болезнь, как проклятие, преследовала целые поколения инуитов. Насилие, самоубийства, несчастные случаи, жестокие семейные ссоры, неудачные роды, дети, рождавшиеся калеками, – все это было следствием алкогольной зависимости.

But actually, they have only replaced impotently sick, exhausted or maimed soldiers and those which had been killed or wounded, and they have successively sent fresh reinforcements.
Однако в действительности они лишь заменяли тяжело больных, истощенных или искалеченных солдат, а также тех солдат, которые были убиты или ранены, и постоянно направляли в Кампучию новые подкрепления.
