Note 1 topic: writing-background
וַיְהִ֗י
and=he/it_was
The author is using this phrase to introduce background information that is not part of the main narrative. This verse and the next verse explain how this place got the name Bokim. In your translation, introduce this information in a way that would be natural in your own language and culture.
Note 2 topic: grammar-collectivenouns
וַיִּשְׂא֥וּ הָעָ֛ם אֶת־קוֹלָ֖ם וַיִּבְכּֽוּ
and,lifted_up the,people DOM voices,their and,wept
Since the author is referring to a group of people, it might be more natural in your language to use the plural form of voice. Alternate translation: “that the people lifted up their voices and wept”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
וַיִּשְׂא֥וּ הָעָ֛ם אֶת־קוֹלָ֖ם וַיִּבְכּֽוּ
and,lifted_up the,people DOM voices,their and,wept
The author is speaking as a voice were literally something that the people of Israel could have lifted up. He means that they spoke loudly. Your language may have an expression of its own that you can use in your translation. Alternate translation: “that the people wept in loud voices”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / hendiadys
וַיִּשְׂא֥וּ הָעָ֛ם אֶת־קוֹלָ֖ם וַיִּבְכּֽוּ
and,lifted_up the,people DOM voices,their and,wept
The phrase lifted up their voice and wept conveys a single idea by using two expressions connected with and. The expression lifted up their voice tells in what way the people wept. Alternate translation: “that the people wept out loud”
2:1-5 The sanctuary had been set up at Gilgal (Josh 4:19-20; 5:10); Bokim is an unknown place, where the angel of the Lord gave an announcement that led to weeping and an attempt to reverse the judgment by offering sacrifice.
