The Peshitta adds the explicit subject pronoun ܐܢܐ ('I') after the verb ܐܡܪ ('say'), a common Syriac stylistic feature for emphasis or clarity, whereas Greek λέγω and Latin dico leave the first-person subject implicit in the verbal inflection.

The Peshitta adds the explicit subject pronoun ܐܢܐ ('I') after the verb ܐܡܪ ('say'), a common Syriac stylistic feature for emphasis or clarity, whereas Greek λέγω and Latin dico leave the first-person subject implicit in the verbal inflection.
The Peshitta omits the conjunction coordinating the second imperative (Greek καί, Latin et), employing asyndetic construction typical of Semitic narrative style, where successive imperatives are juxtaposed without explicit connectives.
Greek uses article + noun + possessive pronoun (τὸν κράβαττόν σου) and Latin mirrors this with accusative noun + possessive (grabatum tuum); Syriac employs a bound-state construction ܥܪܣܟ ('your-mat'), fusing noun and pronominal suffix into a single morphological unit, reflecting standard Semitic possessive syntax.
Greek includes a second coordinating conjunction καί before the final imperative ὕπαγε, creating a three-part asyndetic series (arise, take, and go); both Peshitta and Vulgate omit this conjunction, treating the final command as directly sequential to the preceding clause.
Greek uses prepositional phrase with article (εἰς τὸν οἶκόν σου) and Latin follows with preposition + accusative noun + possessive (in domum tuam); Syriac employs the prefixed preposition ܠ directly attached to the bound-state noun ܠܒܝܬܟ ('to-your-house'), a morphologically compact construction standard in Semitic languages that eliminates the need for separate articles.
