Here “stand before me” is an idiom that means to continue in Saul’s service. Alternate translation: “Let David stay in my service”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
(Occurrence 0) he has found favor in my eyes
(Some words not found in UHB: and,sent Shāʼūl to/towards Yishay to=say stand now Dāvid to/for=my=face/front that/for/because/then/when he/it_found graciousness/kindness/favour/beauty in/on/at/with,sight,my )
Here “eyes” are a metonym for sight, and “my sight” represents how Saul judges or evaluates David. Alternate translation: “he has found favor in my judgment” or “I am pleased with him” (See also: figs-metaphor)
16:22 David’s father, Jesse (16:18), arranged for David to continue serving Saul while still fulfilling his shepherding duties at home (see 17:14-15).
