This is not a grammatical sentence in English. You've got a subordinate 
clause /because I have a weapon which injures./ Then you're /and/-ing it 
with another subordinate clause, /because it injures./ Note that 
/because it injures it causes pain/ is not a subordinate clause: it is a 
subordinate clause /(because it injures) /and an independent clause /(it 
causes pain)./ Then you have the independent clause, /beware./

I think what you have here is your usual habit of splicing sentences 
inside sentences. It just doesn't work here.
