Greek NT ἐμβαίνοντος αὐτοῦ

Peshitta ܣܠܩ

Vulgate ascenderet

Greek employs a genitive absolute (ἐμβαίνοντος αὐτοῦ, 'as he was embarking'), whereas Syriac ܣܠܩ and Latin ascenderet use finite/subjunctive verbs governed by the temporal conjunction; the explicit pronoun αὐτοῦ is absorbed into the verb morphology in both versions.

Greek NT εἰς τὸ πλοῖον

Peshitta ܠܣܦܝܢܬܐ

Vulgate navim

Greek expresses the goal with preposition + article + noun (εἰς τὸ πλοῖον); Syriac ܠܣܦܝܢܬܐ marks the same directional sense with the prefixed lamadh, and Latin navim uses a bare accusative of motion without a preposition, each idiomatically equivalent.

Greek NT παρεκάλει

Peshitta ܒܥܐ ܗܘܐ

Vulgate cœpit deprecari

Greek uses the single imperfect παρεκάλει ('was begging'); Syriac renders this with periphrastic ܒܥܐ ܗܘܐ (perfect + auxiliary ܗܘܐ to convey durative past), while Latin splits the idea into inceptive cœpit ... deprecari ('began to beseech').

Greek NT ὁ δαιμονισθεὶς

Peshitta ܗܘ ܕܫܐܕܘܗܝ

Vulgate qui a dæmonio vexatus fuerat

Greek substantivises the participle (ὁ δαιμονισθείς, 'the one who had been demon-possessed'); Syriac uses the relative ܗܘ ܕܫܐܕܘܗܝ ('he whose demons'); Latin expands into a full relative clause qui a dæmonio vexatus fuerat — semantically equivalent constructions differing in syntactic weight.

Greek NT ἵνα

Vulgate ut

Greek ἵνα and Latin ut introduce the purpose/content clause; Syriac lacks a separate conjunction here, the subordination being carried by the prefixed dalath on ܕܥܡܗ.
