OET (OET-LV)And_he/it_ascended from_there against the_inhabitants_of Dəⱱīr and_name_of Dəⱱīr formerly was_Qiryat Sepher.

OET (OET-RV)then from there, he battled against Debir (formerly called Kiriat-Sefer)

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 15:1–63 The tribe of Judah received their land

This section describes the boundaries of the tribe of Judah and lists the towns that are within those boundaries.

Here are some other possible section headings:

The boundaries of Judah

The land of the tribe of Judah

Paragraph 15:13–19

This paragraph tells about Caleb and his daughter Acsah (also spelled Aksah or Achsah in other English versions). The story of Caleb starts in Numbers 13. In Joshua 14:6–15 Caleb received land from Joshua. In this paragraph Caleb gave Acsah a gift of land when she married Othni-el.

15:15a

From there he marched against the inhabitants of Debir

From there he marched against the inhabitants of Debir: The town called Debir in this verse is not the same as the place mentioned in 15:7. The location of this town is not clear.

he marched: Caleb marched uphill to fight against the people of Debir. Hebrew verbs keep track of elevation, and thus it says “went up.” If your language does not keep track of elevation, it may be more natural to say “went.”

Here are some other ways to translate this part of the verse:

Then he went from Hebron to fight the people of Debir

Caleb next went to attack the town of Debir

15:15b

(formerly known as Kiriath-sepher).

Debir (formerly known as Kiriath-sepher): Here are some other ways to translate this part of the verse:

in past times the name of Debir was Kiriath-sepher

the town of Debir used to be called Kiriath-sepher

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-background

וְ⁠שֵׁם־דְּבִ֥ר לְ⁠פָנִ֖ים קִרְיַת־סֵֽפֶר

and=name_of Dəⱱīr formerly, Qiryat- writing

The author is providing background information to help readers understand that Debir was formerly known as Kiriath Sepher. In your translation, present this information in a way that would be natural in your own language and culture.
