OET (OET-LV) And_they_said [the]_Fəlishəttiy who did_he_do this_[thing] and_they_said Shimshōn the_son-in-law the_Timnite if/because he_has_taken DOM his/its_wife/woman and_gave_her to_companion_his and_came_up [the]_Fəlishəttiy and_burned DOM_her and_DOM father_her in/on/at/with_fire.
OET (OET-RV) So the Philistines asked, “Who did this?”
¶ “Shimshon,” they replied, “the son-in-law of the man from Timnah, because he took Shimshon’s wife and gave her to his close friend.” As a result, the Philistines went to Timnah and they burnt both the woman and her father.

The author assumes that the reader will know that by the Philistines, he means the leaders of the Philistines. You could say that explicitly if it would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “the leaders of the Philistines”
Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns

(Some words not found in UHB: and=they_said Fəlishəttiy who? he/it_had_made this(f) and=they_said Shimshōn son-in-law the,Timnite that/for/because/then/when he/it_had_taken DOM his/its=wife/woman and,gave,her to,companion,his and,came_up Fəlishəttiy and,burned DOM,her and=DOM father,her in/on/at/with,fire )
Here, they is an indefinite pronoun that does not have a specific referent in the context. If it would be more natural in your language, you could translate this with an expression that does not use an indefinite pronoun. Alternate translation: “And they were told”

son-in-law (Some words not found in UHB: and=they_said Fəlishəttiy who? he/it_had_made this(f) and=they_said Shimshōn son-in-law the,Timnite that/for/because/then/when he/it_had_taken DOM his/its=wife/woman and,gave,her to,companion,his and,came_up Fəlishəttiy and,burned DOM,her and=DOM father,her in/on/at/with,fire )
Your language may have its own term or expression for this relationship. Alternate translation: “Samson, who was engaged to marry the daughter of the Timnite, because he took her”

(Some words not found in UHB: and=they_said Fəlishəttiy who? he/it_had_made this(f) and=they_said Shimshōn son-in-law the,Timnite that/for/because/then/when he/it_had_taken DOM his/its=wife/woman and,gave,her to,companion,his and,came_up Fəlishəttiy and,burned DOM,her and=DOM father,her in/on/at/with,fire )
The word Timnite is the name for a person from the town of Timnah. Alternate translation: “that man from Timnah”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicitinfo
וַיִּשְׂרְפ֥וּ אוֹתָ֛הּ וְאֶת־אָבִ֖יהָ בָּאֵֽשׁ
(Some words not found in UHB: and=they_said Fəlishəttiy who? he/it_had_made this(f) and=they_said Shimshōn son-in-law the,Timnite that/for/because/then/when he/it_had_taken DOM his/its=wife/woman and,gave,her to,companion,his and,came_up Fəlishəttiy and,burned DOM,her and=DOM father,her in/on/at/with,fire )
It might seem that the expression burned … with fire contains extra information that would be unnatural to express in your language. If so, you can shorten it. Alternate translation: “burned her and her father to death” or “killed her and her father by setting them on fire”
15:6-10 The chain of revenge was complicated (cp. 9:7-21). First, Samson took revenge on the community of Philistines, not on his in-laws. Next, the Philistines accepted that Samson was a victim of injustice (see study note on 14:20) and took revenge on Samson’s in-laws, which then led Samson to avenge his in-laws by attacking the Philistines. It all triggered a potential war with Israel. God was beginning to rescue Israel through Samson (13:5; cp. 1 Sam 7:3).
OET (OET-LV) And_they_said [the]_Fəlishəttiy who did_he_do this_[thing] and_they_said Shimshōn the_son-in-law the_Timnite if/because he_has_taken DOM his/its_wife/woman and_gave_her to_companion_his and_came_up [the]_Fəlishəttiy and_burned DOM_her and_DOM father_her in/on/at/with_fire.
OET (OET-RV) So the Philistines asked, “Who did this?”
¶ “Shimshon,” they replied, “the son-in-law of the man from Timnah, because he took Shimshon’s wife and gave her to his close friend.” As a result, the Philistines went to Timnah and they burnt both the woman and her father.
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.
