their army; their trouble
Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary
HELAM.The Aramæans from beyond the river, whom Hadarezer summoned to his aid, came to Helam (2Sa_10:16) and were there met and defeated by David (2Sa_10:17 f.). So far as the form of the word is concerned, hçlâm in 2Sa_10:16 might mean their army. There can, however, be little doubt that the LXX [Note: Septuagint.] , Pesh. and Targ. are right in taking it as a proper name. Upon the ground of the LXX [Note: Septuagint.] some introduce Helam also in Eze_47:16. In this case it must have lain on the border between Damascus and Hamath.

E. of Jordan and W. of Euphrates, where Hadarezer and the Syrians were defeated by David (2Sa_10:16-17).
Fausset's Bible Dictionary
By Andrew Robert Fausset, co-Author of Jamieson, Fausset and Brown's 1888.
He'lam. (stronghold). A place east of the Jordan, but west of the Euphrates, at which the Syrians were collected by Hadarezer, and where David met and defeated them. 2Sa_10:16-17.
Smith's Bible Dictionary

hē?lam (חילם, ḥēlām, 2Sa_10:16 f; in 2Sa_16:17 with the he of locale; Septuagint Ἁιλάμ, Hailám): A place near which David is said to have defeated the Aramean world under Hadarezer (2Sa_10:16). Its site is unknown. Cornill and others introduce it into the text of Eze_47:16 (from the Septuagint Ἡλιάμ, Hḗliám). This would place it between the territories of Damascus and Hamath, which is not unreasonable. Some scholars identify it with Aleppo, which seems too far north.

Αἰλάμ, Vulgate Helamn), a place beyond the river (i.e. either east of the Jordan or west of the Euphrates, although Josephus, Ant. 7:6, 3, understands it to mean east of the Euphrates), where David gained a victory over the combined forces of the Syrians under Hadadezer. apparently between Damascus and the country of the Ammonites. Ewald (Is'. Gesch. 2, 620) compares the Alanmatha (Α᾿λάμαθα) of Ptolemy (5, 15, 25), on the west bank of the Euphrates, near Nicephoritm. SEE DAVID.
