Greek piles up three adverbial expressions (πρωῒ ἔννυχα λίαν, 'very early, while still night') to stress the depth of the predawn hour; the Vulgate compresses these to diluculo valde ('very early at daybreak'), and the Peshitta to ܒܨܦܪܐ ܩܕܡ ('in the morning, before [dawn]'), each preserving the temporal sense but reducing the cumulative intensity of the Markan triple adverb.
