Exegesis
The conjunction kî {כִּ֤י | kî} introduces a causal clause “because they were defeated before Israel.” The shift from “made peace” to “served them” underscores submission.
In context — 2 Samuel 10:19
And all the kings who were vassals of Hadadezer saw that they had been routed by Israel, made peace with Israel, and served them. So the Arameans feared to come to the aid of the sons of Ammon anymore.
