Mark 10 : 25

EN It is easier for a camel to go through a needle’s eye than for a rich man to enter into God’s Kingdom.”

ES Más fácil es pasar un camello por el ojo de una aguja, que el rico entrar en el reino de Dios.

ZH-HANS 骆驼穿过针的眼,比财主进 神的国还容易呢。」

ZH-HANT 駱駝穿過針的眼,比財主進上帝的國還容易呢。」

Greek NT κάμηλον
Peshitta ܠܓܡܠܐ
Vulgate camelum

Greek and Latin use the bare accusative subject of the infinitive (κάμηλον / camelum); Syriac ܠܓܡܠܐ prefixes the object marker ܠ-, the regular Syriac way of marking the logical subject of the impersonal construction with ܦܫܝܩ, semantically equivalent.

Greek NT διελθεῖν
Peshitta ܕܢܥܘܠ
Vulgate transire

All three render 'to pass/enter' but with differing placement and lexis: Greek διελθεῖν ('pass through') and Latin transire stand at the clause end, whereas Syriac ܕܢܥܘܠ (root ʿ-w-l, 'enter') is fronted before the prepositional phrase, a typical Syriac reordering of the infinitive clause.

Greek NT διὰ τῆς τρυμαλιᾶς τῆς ῥαφίδος
Peshitta ܒܚܪܘܪܐ ܕܡܚܛܐ
Vulgate per foramen acus

Greek τῆς τρυμαλιᾶς τῆς ῥαφίδος ('the eye of the needle') is matched by Latin foramen acus ('hole of the needle') and Syriac ܒܚܪܘܪܐ ܕܡܚܛܐ ('in the opening of the needle'); Syriac and Latin both choose 'hole/opening' rather than the more anatomical Greek τρυμαλιά, and Syriac supplies the preposition ܒ where Greek uses διά.

Greek NT εἰς τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ θεοῦ
Peshitta ܠܡܠܟܘܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ
Vulgate in regnum Dei

Greek expresses 'into the kingdom of God' with εἰς + accusative and an analytic genitive (τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ θεοῦ), and Latin likewise (in regnum Dei); Syriac compresses this into ܠܡܠܟܘܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ, using a proleptic pronominal suffix ('his-kingdom, of God'), an idiomatic Syriac possessive construction.

Greek NT εἰσελθεῖν
Peshitta ܠܡܥܠ
Vulgate intrare

The verb 'to enter' (Greek εἰσελθεῖν, final; Latin intrare, placed before the prepositional phrase; Syriac ܠܡܥܠ, final) differs in sequence across the three traditions, reflecting each language's preferred placement of the infinitive relative to its goal complement; the sense is identical.
