Mark 13 : 6

Greek employs the prepositional phrase ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματί μου with article and dative case; Latin mirrors this with in nomine meo using ablative; Syriac uses the bound form ܒܫܡܝ (b-shemi, 'in-my-name') as a single morphological unit with pronominal suffix, a typical Semitic construction avoiding the article.

The Peshitta repeats the independent pronoun ܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ (ʾenā ʾenā, 'I I') for emphatic effect, mirroring the Greek ἐγώ εἰμι construction but with doubled pronoun rather than pronoun-plus-verb. Latin ego sum follows Greek syntax exactly with explicit subject pronoun and copula.

The Vulgate inserts a colon after sum to mark the end of direct speech, a punctuation convention absent in Greek manuscripts and Syriac tradition. This reflects Latin scribal practice for clarifying discourse boundaries but does not alter semantic content.

Greek καὶ and Latin et appear as separate coordinating conjunctions; Syriac prefixes the conjunction ܘ (w-) directly to the following word ܘܠܣܓܝܐܐ (w-l-saggīʾē, 'and-to-many'), reflecting standard Syriac morphology where conjunctions attach as proclitics rather than standing as independent tokens.

Greek πλανήσουσιν (planēsousin, 'they will lead astray') and Syriac ܢܛܥܘܢ (neṭʿōn, 'they will deceive') are semantic cognates; Latin seducent ('they will lead away/seduce') employs a compound verb with se- prefix, emphasizing the notion of leading aside from truth, a slightly stronger connotation than the Greek simplex verb.
