The author is introducing background information that is not part of the main story. In your translation, introduce this information in a way that would be natural in your own language and culture.

(Some words not found in UHB: and,the_border_of the=ʼAmorī [was]_from_[the],ascent_of akrabbim from,(the),Sela and,upward,upwards )
Akrabbim is a Hebrew word that the ULT has spelled out using English letters so that readers will know how it sounds. The word means “scorpions” in Hebrew, and here it is the name of a place. In your translation you could spell this name the way it sounds in your language, or you could express its meaning as a name. Alternate translation: [was from Scorpion Pass]

(Some words not found in UHB: and,the_border_of the=ʼAmorī [was]_from_[the],ascent_of akrabbim from,(the),Sela and,upward,upwards )
The word Sela also means “cliff,” so this could be a geographic description rather than a proper name. Alternate translation: [from the cliff]

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.
