and,reported the,terms in/on/at/with,hearing_of the,people

The author is using the term words by association to mean what the messengers said by using words, and he is using the ears of the people to represent them hearing. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [and they had the people listen to their message]

Note 3 topic: grammar-collectivenouns

and,lifted_up all the,people DOM voices_of,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: [And all of the people lifted up their voices and wept]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

וַ⁠יִּשְׂא֧וּ כָל־הָ⁠עָ֛ם אֶת־קוֹלָ֖⁠ם וַ⁠יִּבְכּֽוּ

and,lifted_up all the,people DOM voices_of,their and,wept

The author is speaking as if a voice were an object that the people could have lifted up. He means that the people increased the volume of their voices. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [And all of the people increased the volume of their voices and wept]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / hendiadys
