Mark 1 : 34

EN He healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons. He didn’t allow the demons to speak, because they knew him.

ES Y sanó á muchos que estaban enfermos de diversas enfermedades, y echó fuera muchos demonios; y no dejaba decir á los demonios que le conocían.

ZH-HANS 耶稣治好了许多害各样病的人,又赶出许多鬼,不许鬼说话,因为鬼认识他。

ZH-HANT 耶穌治好了許多害各樣病的人,又趕出許多鬼,不許鬼說話,因為鬼認識他。

Greek NT ἐθεράπευσεν
Peshitta ܘܐܣܝ
Vulgate curavit

The Syriac ܘܐܣܝ fuses the conjunction ('and') with the verb ('he healed') in a single prefixed form, whereas Greek ἐθεράπευσεν and Latin curavit keep verb and conjunction discrete; the alignment overlap with index 0 reflects this morphological fusion.

Greek NT κακῶς ἔχοντας
Peshitta ܕܒܝܫܐܝܬ ܥܒܝܕܝܢ ܗܘܘ
Vulgate qui vexabantur

Greek uses the idiomatic adverbial periphrasis κακῶς ἔχοντας ('being ill'); the Vulgate restructures this as a relative clause qui vexabantur ('who were afflicted'), and the Syriac employs an adverb plus a periphrastic passive participle with the auxiliary ܗܘܘ — three syntactically distinct but semantically equivalent constructions.

Greek NT καὶ
Peshitta ܘܕܝܘܐ
Vulgate et

As at the verse opening, the Syriac ܘܕܝܘܐ prefixes the conjunction directly to the noun 'demons', whereas Greek καί and Latin et stand as independent coordinators; the difference is purely orthographic-morphological.

Greek NT καὶ
Peshitta ܘܠܐ
Vulgate et

The Syriac ܘܠܐ fuses the conjunction with the negative particle ('and not'), corresponding to the discrete Greek καὶ οὐκ and Latin et non; a routine Syriac proclitic phenomenon.

Greek NT ἤφιεν
Peshitta ܫܒܩ ܗܘܐ
Vulgate sinebat

Greek ἤφιεν (imperfect of ἀφίημι) and Latin sinebat each render the durative 'was allowing' with a single verb, whereas the Syriac uses a periphrastic construction ܫܒܩ ܗܘܐ ('was leaving/permitting') with the auxiliary ܗܘܐ to express the same continuous past aspect.

Greek NT λαλεῖν
Peshitta ܠܗܘܢ ܕܢܡܠܠܘܢ
Vulgate loqui

The Syriac renders the infinitive 'to speak' with a finite subjunctive clause ܠܗܘܢ...ܕܢܡܠܠܘܢ ('that they should speak'), supplying an explicit dative pronoun ܠܗܘܢ ('to them') as an anticipatory object; Greek λαλεῖν and Latin loqui use the bare complementary infinitive.

Greek NT τὰ δαιμόνια
Peshitta ܠܕܝܘܐ
Vulgate ea

Greek τὰ δαιμόνια repeats the noun 'the demons' as the explicit object of 'speak'; the Vulgate reduces this to the pronoun ea ('them'), while the Syriac retains the noun ܠܕܝܘܐ ('the demons') with the object marker — a divergence in nominal versus pronominal anaphora.

Greek NT ᾔδεισαν
Peshitta ܕܝܕܥܝܢ ܗܘܘ
Vulgate sciebant

Greek ᾔδεισαν (pluperfect with present force 'they knew') and Latin sciebant (imperfect) render the cognition with a single verb, whereas the Syriac uses the periphrastic ܕܝܕܥܝܢ ܗܘܘ ('they were knowing') with the auxiliary ܗܘܘ to express durative past knowledge.

omission Greek NT only
Greek NT Χριστὸν εἶναι.¶

The Greek NA28 reads the predicate accusative-with-infinitive Χριστὸν εἶναι ('that he was the Christ'), making explicit the content of what the demons knew. Both the Peshitta and the Clementine Vulgate terminate the clause after 'they knew him', omitting the christological complement — a shorter reading the Vulgate shares with the Western and certain Alexandrian witnesses.
