Exegesis
The conjunction ki {כִּי | kî} introduces a causal clause in which haggedud haba {הַגְּדוּד הַבָּא | haggəḏûd habbāʼ} ‘the troop that came’ is modified by ba‘arvim lamachane {בָּעַרְבִים לַמַּחֲנֶה | baˈarvîm lammaḥănê} ‘with the Arabs to the camp’; the Qal perfect harag {הָרַג | hā-rāg} ‘had killed’ predicates over harishonim {הָרִאשֹׁנִים | hārîšônîm} ‘the older sons’.
Root and etymology

In context — 2 Chronicles 22:1
The inhabitants of Jerusalem enthroned Ahaziah, his youngest son, as king in his place because the troop that came with the Arabs to the camp had killed all the older sons. Then Ahaziah son of Jehoram, king of Judah, began to reign.
