EN One ran, and filling a sponge full of vinegar, put it on a reed, and gave it to him to drink, saying, “Let him be. Let’s see whether Elijah comes to take him down.”

Greek NT καὶ
Vulgate et

Greek καί and Latin et coordinate the two participles overtly; the Peshitta absorbs the conjunction into the prefixed waw of ܘܡܠܐ ('and-filled'), so no separate token corresponds — a feature of Syriac morphological clitics rather than a textual omission.

Greek NT ὄξους
Peshitta ܚܠܐ
Vulgate aceto

Greek uses the partitive/material genitive ὄξους ('with vinegar'); the Vulgate matches with the ablative aceto, while the Peshitta ܚܠܐ stands as a bare accusative object without an explicit case marker, the Syriac construction supplying the sense by juxtaposition.

Greek NT περιθεὶς τε
Peshitta ܘܐܣܪ
Vulgate circumponensque

Greek pairs the participle περιθείς with the connective particle τε ('and having placed around'); the Vulgate compresses both into the single enclitic compound circumponensque, and the Peshitta ܘܐܣܪ ('and bound/fastened') uses a different verb of attaching rather than 'placing around', a mild lexical-construction divergence.

Greek NT ἐπότιζεν
Peshitta ܕܢܫܩܝܘܗܝ
Vulgate potum dabat

Greek ἐπότιζεν is a finite imperfect ('he was giving to drink'); the Peshitta renders it with a purpose-infinitive ܕܢܫܩܝܘܗܝ ('that he might give him to drink'), and the Vulgate analytically expands it into noun + verb potum dabat ('was giving a drink') — three distinct grammatical strategies for the same act.

Greek NT αὐτόν
Vulgate ei

Greek αὐτόν and Latin ei supply the explicit pronominal object; in the Peshitta the object is already incorporated into the suffix of ܕܢܫܩܝܘܗܝ ('that he might give-him-to-drink'), so no independent pronoun appears.

Greek NT λέγων·
Peshitta ܘܐܡܪܘ
Vulgate dicens Sinite

Greek λέγων and Latin dicens are singular participles agreeing with the single bystander (τις/unus); the Peshitta ܘܐܡܪܘ is a third-person plural perfect ('and they said'), reflecting the Syriac tendency to generalise the speaking act to the surrounding crowd. The Vulgate's bare colon is counted with the participle as its punctuation.

Greek NT καθελεῖν
Peshitta ܡܚܬ
Vulgate deponendum eum

Greek καθελεῖν is an aorist infinitive of purpose ('to take down'); the Vulgate renders it with the gerundive construction ad deponendum ('for the taking-down'), while the Peshitta ܡܚܬ employs the causative root m-kh-th ('to bring down') — equivalent in sense but each idiomatic to its language.
