Greek and Latin express the first-person plural verb synthetically (ἀναβαίνομεν / ascendimus); Syriac uses the participle ܣܠܩܝܢ followed by the enclitic pronoun ܚܢܢ ('we'), an analytic construction typical of Syriac present-tense narration.
EN “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem. The Son of Man will be delivered to the chief priests and the scribes. They will condemn him to death, and will deliver him to the Gentiles.
ES He aquí subimos á Jerusalem, y el Hijo del hombre será entregado á los príncipes de los sacerdotes, y á los escribas, y le condenarán á muerte, y le entregarán á los Gentiles:
ZH-HANS 「看哪,我们上耶路撒冷去,人子将要被交给祭司长和文士,他们要定他死罪,交给外邦人。

Greek requires the preposition εἰς plus the accusative toponym Ἱεροσόλυμα; Latin uses the bare accusative of place-to-which Jerosolymam without preposition; Syriac employs the proclitic directional ܠ- on ܐܘܪܫܠܡ — three distinct strategies for the same allative sense. The parenthetical transliteration token (5) is editorial and carries no semantic weight.
The Clementine Vulgate adds 'et senioribus' ('and to the elders'), harmonising toward the parallel passion-prediction lists (cf. Mark 8:31; Matt 16:21), where chief priests, scribes, and elders appear together. Neither the Greek NA28 nor the Peshitta transmit 'elders' at this point.
Greek κατακρινοῦσιν αὐτόν and Latin damnabunt eum express verb plus separate accusative object pronoun; Syriac ܢܚܝܒܘܢܝܗܝ incorporates the third-person object suffix directly onto the Pael verb of d-kh-b/ḥ-y-b ('they will condemn him'), a synthetic pronominal-object construction.
As with the previous verb, Greek παραδώσουσιν αὐτόν and Latin tradent eum use a separate object pronoun, whereas Syriac ܢܫܠܡܘܢܝܗܝ encloses the third-person masculine suffix on the verb of š-l-m ('and they will hand him over').
The Clementine Vulgate closes the verse with a colon, marking the syntactic continuation into the following clause (v. 34). Greek and Syriac editions carry no equivalent terminal punctuation here.
