my_brothers_of,my
Although David is the leader of this group of men, he is not using his authority to insist that they do as he says. Instead, he addresses the men who do not want to share the plunder as his brothers. In this context, the term means more than that they are fellow Israelites. David is using it to mean men who have just fought together (“brothers in arms”), as he describes in the next sentence. Your language may have a comparable term that you can use here in your translation.
