People tagged in the matching LV passage: God
OET-LV And_they_called the_name_of the_place (the)_that Bokim and_they_sacrificed there to/for_YHWH.
OET (OET-RV) so they called that place Bokim (which means ‘weeping’) and they offered sacrifices to Yahweh there.

(Some words not found in UHB: and,they_called name_of of,the_place (the)=that Bokīm and,they_sacrificed there to/for=YHWH )
The author assumes that his readers will know that Bochim means “weepers.” If it would be helpful to your readers, you could provide this information in a footnote, or you could put it in the text of your translation, as the UST does.

(Some words not found in UHB: and,they_called name_of of,the_place (the)=that Bokīm and,they_sacrificed there to/for=YHWH )
It might seem that the expression they called the name of that place contains extra information that would be unnatural to express in your language. If so, you can shorten it. See how you translated the same expression in 1:17. Alternate translation: [So they called that place]
OET-LV And_they_called the_name_of the_place (the)_that Bokim and_they_sacrificed there to/for_YHWH.
OET (OET-RV) so they called that place Bokim (which means ‘weeping’) and they offered sacrifices to Yahweh there.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
