For the duration, you see creatures and objects that have the Invisible condition as if they were visible, and you can see into the Ethereal Plane. Creatures and objects there appear ghostly.

The way this spell is worded, you can find creatures who are hiding without needing to take the Search action to look for them if they're in your line of sight.
Comparing this to the 2014 version, we discover that powdered silver was never a necessary component. It simply caused creatures and objects to appear translucent. I'd like to thank the Order of the Many-Starred Cloak for this important discovery.

Yes, rules as written.
Not just you but the entire party. Hide says you lose the invisible condition if an enemy finds you.
