The correct translation for hell is gehenna (Hebrew) which means place of burning, but some translate hell as grave!!
For ppl who say Sheol (Hebrew) or hades (Greek) means hell, no it's not!! It means purgatory. Read Luke 16:19-25

Yes. Hebrew to English is pretty clear, too. It's when it goes from Hebrew to Greek to English that it REALLY gets messed up. For a pure Hebrew to English version of the Tanakh (Old Testament) you have to go to a Jewish source:

On the side there are links that say Nevi'im and Ketuv'im. Nevi'im is Prophets like Isaiah and Ketuv'im is Writings like Psalms.

You are WRONG!
Do some research, and don't state incorrect facts.
