Note 1 topic: writing-newevent
וַיְהִ֣י
and=he/it_was
The author is using the phrase And it happened to introduce a new development in this episode. Use a word, phrase, or other method in your language that is natural for introducing a new development.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
לְעֵ֣ת הָעֶ֗רֶב
to,the_time_of of,the_evening
This culture considered the evening to begin once the day had become cooler. Some cultures would describe that time as “late afternoon” rather than evening. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could describe what the author means here. Alternate translation: [after the hottest part of the day]
Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns
בֵּית־הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_was to,the_time_of of,the_evening and=he/it_rose_up Dāvid from=under bed_of,his and=he/it_walked/wandered on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in roof house_of the=king and=he/it_saw woman/wife bathing from=under the,roof and,the,woman beautiful_of appearance very )
Since David is the subject of this sentence, it may be more natural in your language to refer to his house or palace with a pronoun. Alternate translation: [his house] or [his palace]

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.
