Narrative:
My first officer and I were all set to depart off of runway 13L with all briefs completed and during pushback ground control advised that they had a new routing for us. We stated that we would call them back and continued with the push back and start. Once we were under way and all checks were completed we indicated that we were ready to copy the new clearance. The clearance was actually a change of the runway to runway 31L which is seconds away from our ramp as well a new clearance was issued. We both listened in which is always a bit difficult with the accent; but we were both 100% certain that we received the zipaquira 9G and I was certain that the first officer read back the zipaquira 9G. We worked hard to slow things down and spent a considerable amount of time going over everything from start to finish; as well we referenced the QRH for guidance for the runway change. On the departure while waiting to turn right to intercept the course the controller stated [air carrier X] turn left. Knowing that we had terrain the first officer asked for a specific heading and the controller went silent. Soon he responded with a specific right turn instruction and then mentioned that we were given the zipaquira 9F. Bogota has four departures with zipaquira; the zipaquira 5J; zipaquira 2H; zipaquira 9G and zipaquira 9F. We continued the flight to [the destination].

Narrative: My first officer and I were all set to depart off of runway 13L with all briefs completed and during pushback ground control advised that they had a new routing for us.

The clearance was actually a change of the runway to runway 31L which is seconds away from our ramp as well a new clearance was issued. We both listened in which is always a bit difficult with the accent; but we were both 100% certain that we received the Zipaquira 9G and I was certain that the FO read back the Zipaquira 9G. We worked hard to slow things down and spent a considerable amount of time going over everything from start to finish; as well we referenced the QRH for guidance for the runway change. On the departure while waiting to turn right to intercept the course the controller stated [Air Carrier X] turn left. Knowing that we had terrain the FO asked for a specific heading and the controller went silent. Soon he responded with a specific right turn instruction and then mentioned that we were given the Zipaquira 9F.
