Given Calvinist presuppositions, I fail to see why the Lord would be grieved to have made man.
For he was the one who predetermined Adam to fall and gave him and his descendents a corrupt biological and psychological nature which made atrocities inevitable.
So did God feel indignant about the consequence of his own choice?
If you paid attention to my comment on that verse, you'd notice that I consider it anthropopathetic. So I reject your premise.
In addition, predestination doesn't mean every event is individually good. Some events are individually evil, yet they facilitate something else that's good, a good that's dependent on that prior event.
