Exegesis
Within the direct speech, the predicate adjective Perilypos {Περίλυπός | Pe-rí-ly-pos} ‘deeply grieved’ is placed before the copula estin {ἐστιν | é-stin}, fronting Jesus’ emotional state for emphasis.
In context — Mark 14:34
And He says to them, “Deeply grieved is My soul to the point of death; remain here and keep watch.”
