Mark 10 : 45

All three open with the coordinating-causal pair 'even/for' (καὶ γάρ / ܐܦ...ܓܝܪ / Nam et), but the sequence differs: Greek and Syriac lead with the adverbial 'even' (καί / ܐܦ) and embed the causal particle second, whereas the Vulgate fronts the causal Nam and follows with et. Semantically identical, an instance of differing particle ordering across the versions.

Greek and Syriac render the infinitive of purpose with a single passive form (διακονηθῆναι / ܕܢܫܬܡܫ, 'to be served'); the Vulgate expands this into a final clause ut ministraretur ei, supplying both the conjunction ut and the dative pronoun ei ('to him'), an explicating dative absent from the other witnesses.

The active infinitive διακονῆσαι / ܕܢܫܡܫ is again rendered by the Vulgate as a purpose clause ut ministraret, repeating the conjunction ut where the Greek and Syriac use the bare infinitive of purpose.

Greek καὶ δοῦναι and Latin et daret coordinate the second purpose with conjunction plus verb; Syriac compresses both the conjunction and the relative-purpose marker into the single inflected form ܘܕܢܬܠ ('and that he should give'), a characteristic Syriac economy of expression.

Greek τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ uses article, noun and a separate genitive pronoun; Syriac ܢܦܫܗ fuses noun and possessive suffix into one word; Latin animam suam uses noun plus possessive adjective. All denote 'his life/soul', differing only in how possession is marked.
