Mark 5 : 22

The Greek presents the deictic interjection ἰδού ('behold'), a Markan narrative intensifier; neither the Peshitta nor the Vulgate render an equivalent particle here, smoothing the introduction of the new character into the prefixed conjunction of the verb.

Greek εἷς ('one') and Syriac ܚܕ ('one') are numeral substantives functioning partitively, whereas the Vulgate quidam ('a certain one') employs the indefinite pronoun — a stylistically idiomatic Latin rendering of the partitive numeral.

Greek τῶν ἀρχισυναγώγων and Latin (de) archisynagogis transmit the compound noun 'synagogue-rulers' as a single lexeme in the genitive/ablative plural, while the Syriac analytically renders it as a construct chain ܪܒܝ ܟܢܘܫܬܐ ('chiefs of the assembly'), reflecting the lack of a single Syriac equivalent for the Greek compound.

Greek ἰδών (aorist participle) and Latin videns (present participle) are circumstantial participles, while the Syriac ܚܙܝܗܝ is a finite perfect verb governed by the preceding 'when' (ܟܕ), a standard Syriac substitution of a temporal clause for a Greek participle.

Greek πίπτει stands in the vivid historic present, and Latin procidit (a compound 'falls down') likewise present, whereas the Syriac ܢܦܠ is a perfect/past form, the versions normalising Mark's characteristic present-tense narration.
