Mark 14 : 70

Greek postpositive δέ and Syriac ܕܝܢ are both adversative particles in second position; the Vulgate renders this with the fronted conjunction At, a typical Latin word-order adjustment that places the contrastive marker initially rather than enclitically.

Greek ἠρνεῖτο is imperfect ('he kept denying'), expressing durative/iterative aspect, whereas both the Syriac perfect ܟܦܪ and the Latin perfect negavit render it as a completed act; the aspectual nuance of the Greek is lost in both versions.

Greek μετὰ μικρὸν and Latin post pusillum are prepositional phrases ('after a little [while]'); the Syriac compresses the preposition into the prefixed ܘܒܬܪ with ܩܠܝܠ ('and after a little'), an equivalent temporal construction.

Greek uses an articular perfect participle οἱ παρεστῶτες ('those standing by'); Latin renders it as a relative clause qui astabant and Syriac as a relative construction ܗܢܘܢ ܕܩܝܡܝܢ — semantically equivalent substantival expressions but syntactically distinct (participle vs. finite relative clause).

Greek ἐξ αὐτῶν and Latin ex illis are preposition + pronoun ('of them'); Syriac fuses this into the single inflected form ܡܢܗܘܢ with enclitic 3mp suffix, a normal Semitic synthetic construction conveying the same partitive sense.
