Exegesis
The phrase kol ha-ʿam {כָּל־הָעָ֔ם | kāl hā·ʿām} ‘all the people’ forms the unified subject, while nadon {נָדוֹ֖ן | nā·ḏōn} ‘disputing’ as a Nifal participle underscores ongoing debate.
In context — 2 Samuel 19:9
And it happened that all the people were disputing throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, “The king delivered us from the hand of our enemies, and he rescued us from the hand of the Philistines. But now he has fled from the land because of Absalom .”
