David did not do these things alone. His official and officers helped him. Alternate translation: "David and his officials gathered ... David and his officers arranged" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-synecdoche]])

Here "him" refers to David's soldiers, in addition to David. Alternate translation: "the Arameans fought David and his soldiers" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-synecdoche]])
