Exegesis
The verse begins with the direct object eirenen {εἰρήνην | eirḗnēn} placed before the verb aphiēmi {ἀφίημι | aphíēmi}, so the gift of peace is foregrounded before the act of leaving.

In context — John 14:27
Peace I am leaving with you; my peace I am giving to you. I am not giving to you in the same way the world gives. Let your heart not be unsettled , nor let it be afraid.
