Meeting the king and escorting him across the Jordan River was a symbolic action by which the leaders of Judah showed their renewed loyalty to David and their acceptance of his restored kingship. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could explain the significance of this action in the text of your translation or in a footnote. Alternate translation: [to welcome the king and demonstrate their loyalty by helping him cross the Jordan]
