Mark 3 : 28

All three attest the passive 'will be forgiven' (ἀφεθήσεται / ܢܫܬܒܩܘܢ / dimittentur); Syriac word order differs in that the verb is deferred to the clause end, reflecting its preference for placing the main verb after the subject-objects.

Greek and Latin render the Semitism 'sons of men' with explicit articles and genitive (τοῖς υἱοῖς τῶν ἀνθρώπων / filiis hominum); the Syriac construct chain ܒܢܝ ܐܢܫܐ preserves the original idiom without articulation. The Syriac also positions this phrase after the objects rather than after the verb.

Greek uses the articulated plural neuter τὰ ἁμαρτήματα; both the Vulgate (peccata) and Syriac (ܚܛܗܐ) render the plural without an article, the Syriac employing the cognate root kh-T-a corresponding to Hebrew חָטָא.

Greek and Latin attest the noun 'blasphemies' with the Greek bearing the article (αἱ βλασφημίαι / blasphemiæ); the Syriac fuses the conjunction and noun ܘܓܘܕܦܐ (root g-d-p, cf. Hebrew גִּדֵּף) into a single token, supplying the 'and' already counted with the previous group.

Greek expresses the conditional relative with three words (ὅσα ἐὰν βλασφημήσωσιν), and Latin with a relative pronoun plus subjunctive verb (quibus blasphemaverint); Syriac compresses the entire relative clause into the single inflected verb ܕܢܓܕܦܘܢ ('that they shall blaspheme') with the relative particle prefixed, a typical Syriac economy.

The Syriac supplies an explicit indirect-object pronoun ܠܗܘܢ ('to them') resuming the dative beneficiaries of forgiveness; neither the Greek nor the Vulgate repeats the pronoun, the dative being borne solely by τοῖς υἱοῖς / filiis.

The Greek raised dot (·) and the Vulgate colon (:) both mark a major sense pause anticipating the exception clause of the following verse; the Syriac transmits no terminal punctuation token here.
