Mark 4 : 19

Greek has the plural αἱ μέριμναι ('the cares', N-NPF) with article; the Vulgate matches with plural ærumnæ ('toils, troubles'), but the Peshitta ܘܪܢܝܐ (from root r-n-y, 'thought, anxiety') is morphologically singular/collective and fused with the conjunction, a typical Syriac handling of abstract plurals.

Greek τοῦ αἰῶνος τούτου ('of this age') with demonstrative is matched by Peshitta ܕܥܠܡܐ ܗܢܐ ('of this world'), preserving the demonstrative ܗܢܐ; the Vulgate sæculi omits any equivalent of τούτου ('this'), reading simply 'of the age/world'.

Greek ἡ ἀπάτη ('the deceit', with article) and Latin deceptio render the noun; the Peshitta ܛܘܥܝܝ (root T-e-y, 'error, deception, going astray') carries a nuance of 'leading astray' rather than the more passive 'deceit/illusion' of the Greek, an idiomatic lexical shift.

Greek τὸν λόγον and Latin verbum present the simple accusative object; the Peshitta employs a proleptic resumptive pronoun ܠܗ ('it') anticipating ܠܡܠܬܐ ('the word'), a characteristic Syriac double-object construction that marks the definite direct object and has no equivalent in the Greek or Latin.

Greek uses the single adjective ἄκαρπος ('unfruitful'); both the Vulgate (sine fructu, 'without fruit') and the Peshitta (ܘܕܠܐ ܦܐܪܐ, 'and without fruit') render this periphrastically with a privative prepositional phrase rather than a one-word negated adjective.
