Exegesis
In the imperative vaaseh hatov {וַעֲשֵׂה הַטּוֹב | vă-ʿă-śê hă-ṭōv} followed by be'einekha {בְּעֵינֶיךָ | bə-ʿê-în-ê-khă}, the text urges the king to act according to his judgment. English reorders the Hebrew VSO to SVO to maintain clarity while preserving the rhetorical progression and honorific repetition.
In context — 2 Samuel 19:27
He slandered your servant to my lord the king, but my lord the king is like an angel of God ; therefore, do what is good in your eyes .
