"Satan" here is referring to the demons who follow Satan as well as to Satan himself. Alternate translation: "If Satan and members of his kingdom are fighting among themselves" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy)

That would mean that Satan is divided against himself" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit)
