skin_of,our (Some words not found in UHB: skin_of,our like,an_oven hot from=face/in_front_of burning_heat_of famine )
The point of this comparison is that just as an oven is extremely hot, so the people’s skin is burning with intense heat from fever. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this point explicitly. Alternate translation: [Our skin burns as hot as an oven]

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.
