their dead
This refers to the dead people. AT: "those who died" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-nominaladj)

the sky will be rolled up like a scroll
This can be stated in active form. This compares what Yahweh will do to the sky to a person rolling up a scroll. AT: "Yahweh will roll up the sky in the same way that a person rolls up a scroll" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive and rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-simile)
all their stars will fade away, as the leaf fades from off the vine, and as the overripe figs from the fig tree
This emphasizes even the things in the sky that people thought would be there forever will fall as easily as a leaf. AT: "all the stars will fall from the sky like a leaf falls from a vine or a fig falls from a tree" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-simile)
