and,he_fell Mosheh and,Aaron on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in faces_of,their
Falling on their faces was a symbolic action by which Moses and Aaron showed their dismay and grief at the Israelites’ rebellion. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could explain the significance of this action in the text of your translation or in a footnote. Alternate translation: [And Moses lay and Aaron with their faces on the ground to show their grief] or [And Moses bowed and Aaron with their faces to the ground in sorrow]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure
וַיִּפֹּ֥ל מֹשֶׁ֛ה וְאַהֲרֹ֖ן
and,he_fell Mosheh and,Aaron
If it would be more natural in your language, you may want to put the information about Aaron with the information about Moses. Alternate translation: [And Moses and Aaron fell]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
לִפְנֵ֕י
to=(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / possession
כָּל־קְהַ֥ל עֲדַ֖ת בְּנֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵֽל
all/each/any/every assembly_of congregation_of sons_of Yisrael
The author is using the possessive form to describe an assembly that is made up of the congregation that is the sons of Israel. 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 congregation that consists of all the sons of Israel assembled together]
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet
קְהַ֥ל עֲדַ֖ת
assembly_of congregation_of
The terms assembly and congregation mean similar things. The author is using the two terms together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: [the congregation]

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.
