Exegesis
The participle omed {עֹמֵד | ʿō-mēḏ} ‘standing’ conveys ongoing posture, followed by the prepositional phrase lefanekha {לְפָנֶיךָ | lə-fā-ne-kā} ‘before you’ and the locative sham {שָּׁם | šām} ‘there.’
In context — Exodus 17:6
Behold, I stand before you there on the rock at Horeb; you are to strike the rock, and water will emerge from it for the people to drink. And Moses acted accordingly in the sight of the elders of Israel.
