Exegesis
The infinitive la·‘ă·šōt {לַעֲשׂ֥וֹת | la·‘ă·šōt} ‘to do’ governs hay·yā·šār {הַיָּשָׁר | ha·yā·šār} ‘the right’, and the idiomatic expression bĕ·‘ê·nê Yĕ·hō·wāh {בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָֽה | bĕ·‘ê·nê Yĕ·hō·wāh} ‘in the eyes of the LORD’ communicates divine evaluation, with the dual “eyes” accentuating comprehensive scrutiny. The Hebrew word order and conjunctions reinforce continuity of righteous devotion.
In context — 2 Chronicles 20:32
He walked in the way of his father Asa and did not turn aside from it to do what is right in the eyes of the LORD .
