Mark 2 : 1

Greek marks the goal with the preposition εἰς + accusative Καφαρναούμ; the Vulgate places Capharnaum directly without preposition, while Syriac fuses the directional lamadh prefix into ܠܟܦܪܢܚܘܡ. The toponym is transmitted in all three but with differing case/prepositional marking.

The Peshitta supplies the explicit subject ܝܫܘܥ ('Jesus'), a clarifying expansion absent from both the Greek and Latin, which leave the subject implicit in the verb. This is a characteristic Syriac tendency to name the agent for narrative clarity.

Greek δι᾽ ἡμερῶν and Latin post dies both express the temporal interval 'after [some] days'; Syriac renders it with the single prepositional form ܠܝܘܡܬܐ. The idiomatic phrasing of the interval differs slightly across the three, with Greek using διά + genitive and Latin post + accusative.

Greek καί and Syriac ܘܟܕ ('and when') introduce the following clause of hearing; the Vulgate verse ends at dies and omits this clause entirely, the Clementine edition splitting the report-of-his-presence into the subsequent verse division.

The passive 'it was heard' (Greek ἠκούσθη) corresponds to the Syriac active plural ܫܡܥܘ ('they heard'), a construction-level difference in voice; the Latin omits the entire clause owing to versification. Greek prefers the impersonal passive while Syriac employs an indefinite third-plural active to convey the same agentless reporting.

Greek ὅτι ἐν οἴκῳ ('that he is in [the] house') is compactly rendered by the Syriac ܕܒܒܝܬܐ, which fuses the complementiser, preposition, and noun into one form. The Latin lacks this material due to the verse boundary.

Greek closes with the present indicative ἐστίν ('he is'), while Syriac uses the enclitic pronoun ܗܘ as a copula-equivalent. This reflects the standard Syriac nominal-sentence construction lacking an overt verb 'to be', whereas Greek supplies the finite verb explicitly.
