Mark 5 : 34

The Vulgate inserts a colon after the indirect object pronoun 'ei', creating a stronger pause before the vocative address. Greek uses a raised dot (·) after αὐτῇ, while Peshitta has no explicit punctuation marker, reflecting differing scribal conventions for marking direct speech boundaries.

Greek employs an articular construction (ἡ πίστις σου, 'the faith of you') with article + noun + possessive pronoun. Syriac uses a single bound form ܗܝܡܢܘܬܟܝ ('your-faith') with pronominal suffix, a typical Semitic synthetic construction. Latin mirrors the Greek analytic structure (fides tua) but without the article, as Latin lacks definite articles.

Greek uses the perfect active indicative σέσωκέν σε ('has saved you'), emphasizing completed action with ongoing results. Syriac employs the Aphel perfect ܐܚܝܬܟܝ ('has made-you-live/healed-you') with incorporated object suffix. Latin uses a periphrastic perfect construction 'te salvam fecit' (literally 'has made you safe'), placing the accusative pronoun before the predicate adjective, a word order reflecting Latin rhetorical emphasis.

The Vulgate inserts a second colon after 'fecit', creating a tripartite structure (address : declaration : commands). This punctuation choice divides the healing declaration from the dismissal commands more sharply than in Greek or Syriac, where the flow is continuous.

Greek uses the present imperative ἴσθι ὑγιής ('be healthy'), a copular construction with predicate adjective. Syriac incorporates this into the preceding conjunction with ܘܗܘܝܬܝ ܚܠܝܡܐ ('and-be-you healthy'), using the feminine imperative with pronominal suffix. Latin employs 'esto sana', mirroring Greek structure but using the future imperative 'esto' rather than present, a construction emphasizing the perduring nature of the command.
