Note 1 topic: writing-background
וַיַּעַבְד֤וּ הָעָם֙ אֶת־יְהוָ֔ה
and,served the,people DOM YHWH
If you decided to translate 2:6 in a way that showed it was background information, you can continue to do that in this verse. Alternate translation: “And the people had served Yahweh”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
כֹּ֖ל יְמֵ֣י יְהוֹשֻׁ֑עַ וְכֹ֣ל ׀ יְמֵ֣י הַזְּקֵנִ֗ים
all days_of Yəhōshūˊa and=all/each/any/every days_of the,elders
In these phrases, the author is using the term days to refer to a specific time, the lifetimes of Joshua and these elders. He is doing this by association with the way a lifetime is made up of individual days. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “throughout the lifetimes of Joshua and the elders”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
אֲשֶׁ֨ר הֶאֱרִ֤יכוּ יָמִים֙ אַחֲרֵ֣י יְהוֹשׁ֔וּעַ
which/who they_outlived days after Yəhōshūˊa
The author is speaking as if these elders had done something to make their days longer after Joshua died. He is using a common expression that means that their days, that is, their lifetimes, continued for some years after Joshua died. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “who had outlived Joshua”

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.
