OET-LV And_ they and_all that to/for_them _they_went_down alive Shəʼōl_to and_it_covered over_them the_earth/land and_they_perished from_among_of the_assembly.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
וַיֵּ֨רְד֜וּ הֵ֣ם וְכָל־אֲשֶׁ֥ר לָהֶ֛ם חַיִּ֖ים שְׁאֹ֑לָה
and,they_went_down they and=all which/who to/for=them life(pl) Sheol,to
Here, the author is speaking of death as if it were going to a place called Sheol that these people would enter while still alive. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation, or you could state the meaning plainly. See how you translated the similar clause in verse 30. Alternate translation: [and it as if they arrived, they and all that was to them, at the place of the dead while they were still alive] or [and they died, they and all that was to them, after they were buried instead of before]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / personification
וַתְּכַ֤ס עֲלֵיהֶם֙ הָאָ֔רֶץ
and,it_covered over,them the=earth/land
The author is speaking of the earth as if it were a living thing that could cover people. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [and they were covered with earth]
OET-LV And_ they and_all that to/for_them _they_went_down alive Shəʼōl_to and_it_covered over_them the_earth/land and_they_perished from_among_of the_assembly.
OET (OET-RV) They went down alive to their grave, along with everything they owned, and then the ground covered over them and they vanished from the community.
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.
