Mark 9 : 22

Greek uses καὶ πολλάκις ('and often') with the conjunction preceding the adverb; Peshitta ܘܙܒܢܝܢ ܣܓܝܐܢ and Vulgate et frequenter mirror this structure, though Vulgate employs a single adverb rather than a noun-adjective construction.

Greek employs καὶ εἰς τὸ πῦρ αὐτὸν ἔβαλεν with the object preceding the verb and an article before πῦρ; Peshitta ܐܪܡܝܬܗ ܒܢܘܪܐ uses verb-initial order with pronominal suffix; Vulgate eum in ignem misit places the object first but verb-final, omitting the article (Latin lacks articles).

Greek ἵνα ἀπολέσῃ αὐτόν uses a purpose clause with ἵνα + subjunctive; Peshitta ܕܬܘܒܕܝܘܗܝ employs a d- relative construction with pronominal suffix; Vulgate ut eum perderet uses ut + subjunctive, though perderet is imperfect subjunctive rather than present, reflecting Latin sequence-of-tenses rules.

Greek ἀλλ᾽ ('but') transitions directly to the conditional; Peshitta ܐܠܐ mirrors this; Vulgate inserts a colon before sed, creating a stronger pause and treating the following clause as a separate sentence rather than a continuous adversative construction.

Greek εἴ τι δύνῃ ('if you are able [to do] anything') uses second-person singular present indicative; Peshitta ܡܕܡ ܕܡܫܟܚ ܐܢܬ employs a relative construction with explicit subject pronoun ܐܢܬ ('you'); Vulgate si quid potes uses second-person singular present indicative potes, semantically equivalent but without the explicit pronoun.

Greek βοήθησον ἡμῖν ('help us') uses first-person plural dative; Peshitta ܥܕܪܝܢܝ ('help me') employs first-person singular pronominal suffix, shifting from plural to singular and altering the scope of the father's plea; Vulgate adjuva nos retains the Greek plural, making the Peshitta reading a substantive divergence.

Greek σπλαγχνισθεὶς ἐφ᾽ ἡμᾶς ('having compassion on us') uses aorist passive participle with prepositional phrase and first-person plural accusative; Peshitta ܘܐܬܪܚܡ ܥܠܝ ('and have mercy on me') employs imperative with first-person singular suffix, continuing the singular address from the previous clause; Vulgate misertus nostri uses perfect passive participle with genitive nostri, maintaining the plural but differing in case government from Greek.
