Greek NT ἔσονται πίπτοντες
Peshitta ܢܦܠܘܢ
Vulgate erunt decidentes

Greek employs a periphrastic future ἔσονται ... πίπτοντες ('will be falling'), with the future of εἰμί plus a present participle, a Semitising construction; Latin mirrors it precisely with erunt ... decidentes, whereas the Peshitta collapses it into a simple imperfect/future ܢܦܠܘܢ ('they shall fall'), losing the periphrastic nuance.

Greek NT ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ
Peshitta ܡܢ ܫܡܝܐ
Vulgate cæli

Greek uses the prepositional phrase ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ('out of heaven') with the singular noun, matched by the Syriac ܡܢ ܫܡܝܐ ('from heaven'); the Vulgate instead renders the source as a bare genitive cæli ('of heaven'), omitting the explicit preposition and assimilating the idea attributively.

Greek NT αἱ ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς
Peshitta ܕܫܡܝܐ
Vulgate quæ in cælis sunt

Greek expresses the attribution with an articular prepositional phrase αἱ ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς ('which are in the heavens'), and Latin renders it as a relative clause quæ in cælis sunt; the Peshitta condenses the whole modifier to a single construct-genitive form ܕܫܡܝܐ ('of heaven'), a typical Syriac economy that drops the explicit copular relative.
