If a speaker of your language would not use the possessive form for this, you could express this idea in another way. Alternate translation: [the people who belong to me]

וָ⁠אֶתְּנֵ֖⁠ם בְּ⁠יָדֵ֑⁠ךְ

Here, hand represents “power and control.” If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [and I gave them into your power]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

זָקֵ֕ן

aged

Yahweh is using the adjective elderly as a noun to mean a certain kind of person. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you can translate this adjective with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: [elderly people]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

הִכְבַּ֥דְתְּ עֻלֵּ֖⁠ךְ מְאֹֽד

Here Yahweh is speaking of the harsh oppression that Babylon imposed on the people as if it were a heavy yoke that Babylon placed on them. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [you oppressed them very harshly]
