Go down to Sheol/ to die

Dead. Figuratively: went down into oblivion (Sheol means the world of the dead).

("And they, and all that belonged to them, went down alive to Sheol, and the earth closed over them, and they perished from among the assembly" — Numbers 16:33 (the fate of Korah and his company); and likewise: "If the LORD creates a new thing, and the ground opens its mouth and swallows them, with all that belongs to them, and they go down alive to Sheol" — Numbers 16:30.)
