UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-collectivenouns

בְּ⁠יָדָ⁠ם֙ אֶל־פִּי⁠הֶ֔ם

in/on/at/with,hands,their to/towards mouths,their

Since the author is referring to a group of people, it might be more natural in your language to use the plural forms of hand and mouth. Alternate translation: “with their hands to their mouths”

Note 2 topic: grammar-collectivenouns

כָּרְע֥וּ עַל־בִּרְכֵי⁠הֶ֖ם

got_down on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in knees,their

See how you translated the similar expression in the previous verse. Alternate translation: “knelt down”
