OET (OET-LV) And_now give to/for_me DOM the_hill_country the_this which he_spoke YHWH in_the_day (the)_that if/because you you_heard on_day (the)_that if/because_that ˊAnāqī were_there and_cities large fortified perhaps YHWH will_be_with_me and_I_will_dispossess_them just_as he_spoke YHWH.

OET (OET-RV) So now, please give me that hill country that Yahweh promised that day, because you yourself heard me say that the Anakim lived there in fortified cities. So now, perhaps Yahweh will help me to take them over just as he said.”

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 14:6–15 Joshua gave Caleb the town of Hebron

In this section Caleb reminded Joshua of a promise that Moses had made to him. After Caleb helped to spy out the land of Canaan, Moses promised that he would inherit the land he had walked on. So Joshua granted the town of Hebron to Caleb.

Here are some other possible section headings:

Caleb’s inheritance

Caleb claimed his inheritance

14:12a

Now therefore give me this hill country that the LORD promised me on that day,

Now therefore give me this hill country: The phrase hill country refers to a region that had mountains in it. In verses 13–15 Joshua gives the town of Hebron to Caleb. Hebron was in this mountainous area.

that the LORD promised me on that day: Numbers 14:24 tells how Yahweh promised to give Caleb the land that he had explored.

Here are some other ways to translate this phrase:

So I’m asking you for the hill country that the Lord promised me that day (CEV)

Now give me the mountain region which Yahweh told me then I will receive

14:12b

for you yourself heard then that the Anakim were there,

for you yourself heard then that the Anakim were there: When the twelve spies came back, they told Moses about people called Anakim who lived in that land. Joshua was there and heard the report.

Anakim: The term Anakim refers to people who were descended from Anak. They are mentioned in Joshua 11:21, and you should translate this word the same way in both places.

Here are some other ways to translate this clause:

You heard then that the descendants of Anak lived there

At that time you heard that the Anak people lived there

14:12c

with great and fortified cities.

with great and fortified cities: The phrase with great and fortified cities indicates that the Anak people lived in towns with strong walls and gates.

Here are some other ways to translate this phrase:

they lived in large towns surrounded by walls

they have large walled towns

14:12d

Perhaps with the LORD’s help I will drive them out,

Perhaps with the LORD’s help: The Hebrew phrase that the BSB has translated as Perhaps is more literally “perhaps, maybe.” This word in Hebrew expresses hope, not doubt.

Here are some other ways to translate this phrase:

if Yahweh is with me

I know that Yahweh will help me

I will drive them out: The clause I will drive them out means that Caleb will force the Anak people to leave the land and he will be able to live there himself.

Here are some other ways to translate this clause:

I will force them to leave their land

I will take their land from them

14:12e

as the LORD has spoken.”

as the LORD has spoken: Here are some other ways to translate this phrase:

as Yahweh promised

as Yahweh promised that I would do.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

וְ⁠עָרִים֙ גְּדֹל֣וֹת בְּצֻר֔וֹת

and,cities great fortified

The author is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [and that there were great fortified cities there]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

יְהוָ֤ה אוֹתִ⁠י֙

YHWH [will,be]_with_me

Caleb is using a common expression to mean that God will help him. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [Yahweh will help me]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

14:12 Israel had stayed out of Canaan forty-five years earlier because they feared the descendants of Anak, a tall, strong people who lived in the hill country of Judah (Num 13:32-33).

OET (OET-RV) So now, please give me that hill country that Yahweh promised that day, because you yourself heard me say that the Anakim lived there in fortified cities. So now, perhaps Yahweh will help me to take them over just as he said.”

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.
