Exegesis
The interrogative clause ti aute kopous parechete {τί αὐτῇ κόπους παρέχετε | tí au-tê kó-pous pa-ré-khe-te} places the interrogative pronoun ti at the front for emphasis, followed by the indirect object aute and the object kopous, with the present indicative parechete at the end. This word order highlights both the person being affected (“to her”) and the nature of the action (“troubles”) before revealing the ongoing causation (“are you causing”).
In context — Mark 14:6
But Jesus said, “Leave her alone; why do you cause her trouble ? She has done a good work for Me.”
