Greek expresses the verb 'you say' with a single finite form λέγετε; the Peshitta employs the analytic participle-plus-enclitic-pronoun construction ܐܡܪܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ (participle + 'you'), the standard Syriac present-tense periphrasis. The Vulgate uses a single finite verb dicitis followed by a colon introducing direct speech.
