Mark 1 : 2

Greek uses perfect passive γέγραπται (single verb); Vulgate employs periphrastic scriptum est (participle + auxiliary); Peshitta uses passive participle ܕܟܬܝܒ with implied copula — all semantically equivalent expressions of 'it is written.'

Greek places pronoun before verb (ἐγὼ ἀποστέλλω); Vulgate follows this order (ego mitto); Peshitta inverts to verb-subject (ܡܫܕܪ ܐܢܐ), reflecting standard Syriac VSO word order for emphasis on the action.

Greek uses article + noun + possessive pronoun (τὸν ἄγγελόν μου); Vulgate employs noun + possessive (angelum meum); Peshitta uses construct state ܡܠܐܟܝ ('my-messenger'), a single bound form typical of Semitic possessive constructions.

Greek employs relative pronoun + future verb (ὃς κατασκευάσει); Vulgate mirrors with qui præparabit; Peshitta uses d-relative particle + imperfect verb ܕܢܬܩܢ, a standard Syriac relative construction expressing future purpose or result.

Greek uses article + noun + possessive (τὴν ὁδόν σου); Vulgate employs noun + possessive (viam tuam); Peshitta uses construct state with pronominal suffix ܐܘܪܚܟ ('your-way'), a single bound form eliminating the need for separate possessive pronoun.

Greek and Vulgate include the redundant prepositional phrase ἔμπροσθέν σου / ante te ('before you'), creating emphasis through repetition after πρὸ προσώπου σου / ante faciem tuam. The Peshitta omits this pleonastic construction, ending with ܐܘܪܚܟ ('your way'), likely viewing the repetition as unnecessary in Syriac idiom.
