uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

וְ⁠אָבִ֨י⁠ו וְ⁠אִמּ֜⁠וֹ לֹ֣א יָדְע֗וּ כִּ֤י מֵ⁠יְהוָה֙ הִ֔יא כִּי־תֹאֲנָ֥ה הֽוּא־מְבַקֵּ֖שׁ מִ⁠פְּלִשְׁתִּ֑ים וּ⁠בָ⁠עֵ֣ת הַ⁠הִ֔יא פְּלִשְׁתִּ֖ים מֹשְׁלִ֥ים בְּ⁠יִשְׂרָאֵֽל

and,father_of,his and,mother_of,his not know (Some words not found in UHB: and,father_of,his and,mother_of,his not know that/for/because/then/when [was]_from,Yahweh she/it that/for/because/then/when occasion he/it seeking from_[the],Philistines and,at,time (the),that Pelishtim ruling over,Israel )

If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these phrases, since the second phrase gives the reason for the result that the first phrase describes. Alternate translation: [Now at that time the Philistines were ruling over Israel, and Yahweh was seeking an occasion against them. That was why this happened. But his father and mother did not realize that]
