Mark 5 : 28

Greek ἔλεγεν is a synthetic imperfect (3rd sing.), as is Latin dicebat; the Peshitta renders the past durative periphrastically with the participle ܐܡܪܐ plus the auxiliary ܗܘܬ ('she was saying'), a standard Syriac construction for the imperfective past lacking a single inflected form.

Greek ἐάν (with κἄν) and Latin si... vel correspond to the single Syriac concessive-conditional ܕܐܦܢ ('if even/although'), which fuses the recitative-relative ܕ, the concessive sense, and the conditional into one particle.

Greek uses the articular plural τῶν ἱματίων αὐτοῦ ('his garments'), idiomatic for clothing collectively, whereas both the Vulgate vestimentum ejus and the Syriac ܠܠܒܘܫܗ employ the singular ('his garment'), a typical Semitic and Latin collective rendering of the Greek plural.

Greek ἅψωμαι (aorist middle subjunctive) and Latin tetigero (future perfect) express the conditional protasis verb; the Peshitta uses the participle ܩܪܒܐ with the enclitic pronoun ܐܢܐ ('I touch/draw near'), and notably employs the root q-r-b ('to draw near, approach') rather than a verb strictly meaning 'to touch'.

Greek σωθήσομαι (future passive of σῴζω, 'I will be saved/healed') and Latin salva ero preserve the passive 'be saved'; the Peshitta ܚܝܐ ܐܢܐ uses the root kh-y-a ('to live, be made alive'), shifting the semantic field from rescue/healing toward life and vitality, a recurring Syriac lexical choice for salvation language.
