the land

Here the place where the spirits of dead people go is spoken of as if it was a land. Alternate translation: "the place" (See: rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor)

of darkness and of the shadow of death

The phrase "shadow of death" intensifies the idea of "darkness." Both phrases describe where the spirits of dead people go. (See: rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-doublet)

the shadow of death

See how you translated this in Job 3:5.
