Note 1 topic: writing-newevent
וַיְהִ֗י
and=he/it_was
The author is introducing a new event in the story. The ULT indicates this with the word Now. Use a word, phrase, or other method in your language that is natural for introducing a new event.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
וַיָּשׁ֨וּבוּ֙
and,they_turned_back
The author is speaking as if the Israelites literally turned and faced or went in a different direction. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. See how you translated the same expression in [2:19](../02/19.md). Alternate translation: [that … changed their behavior]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
וַיִּזְנ֖וּ אַחֲרֵ֣י הַבְּעָלִ֑ים
and,they_acted_as_prostitutes after the,Baals
See how you translated the same expression in [2:17](../02/17.md). Alternate translation: [and betrayed Yahweh by worshiping the Baals]
Note 4 topic: translate-names
וַיָּשִׂ֧ימוּ לָהֶ֛ם בַּ֥עַל בְּרִ֖ית לֵאלֹהִֽים
and,they_made to/for=them Baˊal- -berith into,god
The expression Baal-Berith is the name of a false god. It means “master of the covenant.” This name also appears in [9:4](../09/04.md) and in the form El-Berith (which means “god of the covenant”) in [9:46](../09/46.md).

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.
