Mark 13 : 37

All three witnesses attest the second-person plural pronoun; the Syriac fronts it within a relative-pronoun cluster (ܕܠܟܘܢ, 'that to you'), a normal word-order shift in Syriac relative constructions that does not affect sense.

The repeated verb of saying is rendered in Syriac with a resumptive pronoun ܗܘ ('that [same thing]') plus the periphrastic ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ, an idiomatic Syriac amplification that reinforces the parallelism of the Greek λέγω ... λέγω without adding semantic content.

Greek uses the present imperative γρηγορεῖτε ('keep watching') and Latin the imperative Vigilate; Syriac employs a periphrastic construction ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܥܝܪܝܢ ('be [you] watchful'), combining the verb 'to be' with the participle 'watching/awake' (root ʿ-y-r) to express the durative command — semantically equivalent but syntactically distinct.

The Vulgate marks the transition to direct speech with an explicit colon, where the Greek uses a raised dot (·) and the Peshitta has no separate punctuation token; this is an editorial divergence in representing the introduction of the quoted imperative.
