Exegesis
The expression be'einei YHWH {בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָה | bəʿênê Yəhōwāh} “in the eyes of the LORD” frames the judgment explicitly from YHWH’s perspective, marking the action as measured against divine standards rather than political success.
In context — 2 Kings 13:2
And he did what was evil in the eyes of the LORD , and he walked after the sins of Jeroboam, son of Nebat, who caused Israel to sin; he did not turn aside from it.
