Mark 7 : 34

Greek ἀναβλέψας εἰς τὸν οὐρανόν ('having looked up to heaven') and the Vulgate suscipiens in cælum render the gesture with participle plus prepositional phrase, whereas the Peshitta compresses this to ܘܚܪ ܒܫܡܝܐ ('and he looked at heaven'), using a finite verb and folding the directional sense into the preposition ܒ. The substance is identical; only the syntactic packaging differs.

Greek λέγει is a vivid historic present ('he says'), a Markan stylistic hallmark, while both the Peshitta perfect ܘܐܡܪ and the Vulgate ait render it as a simple past. The versions normalise the narrative tense, smoothing Mark's characteristic present.

Greek transliterates the Aramaic command as εφφαθα and the Vulgate as Ephphetha, preserving the foreign loan-word for its evangelistic effect. The Peshitta has no separate transliteration here because the original Aramaic word coincides with its own native verb, given directly below.

The explanatory gloss ὅ ἐστιν διανοίχθητι ('which is, Be opened'), rendered in the Vulgate as quod est, Adaperire, is absent from the Peshitta. Since Syriac is itself an Aramaic dialect, the translation gloss intended for Greek/Latin readers is superfluous, and the single Peshitta verb ܐܬܦܬܚ below supplies the meaning directly.
