Greek NT ὁ οὐρανὸς
Peshitta ܫܡܝܐ
Vulgate Cælum

Greek articulates the subject (ὁ οὐρανός) with the definite article, as does Latin via its anarthrous noun Cælum and Syriac via the emphatic state ܫܡܝܐ; the absence of a separate article in Syriac and Latin is purely a feature of those languages and carries no semantic divergence.

Greek NT καὶ ἡ γῆ
Peshitta ܘܐܪܥܐ
Vulgate et terra

Greek and Latin coordinate two separate nouns (καὶ ἡ γῆ / et terra), whereas Syriac compresses the conjunction and noun into the single prefixed form ܘܐܪܥܐ ('and-earth'), a normal Syriac orthographic feature rather than a textual variant.

Greek NT οἱ δὲ λόγοι μου
Peshitta ܘܡܠܝ
Vulgate verba autem mea

Greek expresses 'but my words' with the postpositive δέ plus article and possessive (οἱ δὲ λόγοι μου), matched by Latin verba autem mea; Syriac condenses noun and first-person suffix into ܘܡܠܝ ('and-my-words') and omits any adversative particle, relying on the prefixed waw for the contrast.

Greek NT οὐ μὴ
Peshitta ܠܐ
Vulgate non

Greek employs the emphatic double negative οὐ μή, the strongest form of future denial, to assert that the words will by no means pass away; both the Syriac simple negative ܠܐ and the Latin non render this with an ordinary negation, losing the intensifying force of the Greek construction.

Greek NT παρελεύσονται.¶
Peshitta ܢܥܒܪܢ
Vulgate transibunt

The Greek verb παρελεύσονται is masculine-plural in agreement with λόγοι, while the Syriac ܢܥܒܪܢ carries a distinct feminine-plural inflection agreeing with ܡܠܝ ('words'), reflecting the grammatical gender of the Syriac noun; the Latin transibunt is gender-neutral. The Greek paragraph mark (¶) is editorial and signals the close of the discourse unit.
