לַזְּקֵנִ֜ים וְכָל־הָעָ֗ם
to_the,elders and=all the,people
Here, to the elders and to all the people refers to all the people who were present at the meeting place, not to everyone in the town. The writer uses it here as a generalization for emphasis. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different way to express the emphasis. Alternate translation: “to everyone there, including the elders”

from,hand_of Nāˊₒmī
The hand of Naomi represents Naomi. Since her husband and sons had died, the right to the property belonged to her. Alternate translation: “from Naomi”

Alternate translation: “all the property that was formerly owned by Naomi’s deceased husband and sons”

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.
Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
