Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
בֵית־יוֹסֵ֖ף
house_of Yōşēf
See how you translated the expression the house of Joseph in the previous verse.
Note 2 topic: writing-background
וְשֵׁם־הָעִ֥יר לְפָנִ֖ים לֽוּז
and=name_of the=city to/for,formerly Lūz
Here the author is providing background information to help readers understand what is happening in the story. The author probably wrote this because his readers knew this city as Bethel. But at the time when Israel attacked it, it was called Luz. In your translation, introduce this information in a way that would be natural in your own language and culture. You may also wish to mark it in some way as background information, such as by putting it in parentheses as the ULT does. Alternate translation: “Bethel used to be called Luz”
Note 3 topic: translate-names
לֽוּז
Lūz
The word Luz is the name of a city.
1:21-36 The tribes of Israel failed to keep the covenant; their complacency was rebellion against the Lord, as the rest of the book of Judges shows.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
