turned their heart back again to yourself
(Some words not found in UHB: answer,me YHWH answer,me and,know the,people the=this that/for/because/then/when you(ms) YHWH the=ʼElohīm and=you(ms) turned DOM hearts_of,their back )
The people’s “heart” is a metonym for the affection and loyalty of the people. Alternate translation: “caused them to be loyal to you again”
18:37 The call-answer motif appears frequently in the Old Testament, often depicting the petitioner’s intimate relationship to the Lord (Job 14:15; Pss 4:1; 91:15; 102:2; Isa 65:24; Jer 33:3).

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.
