I've only read some English translations (Lamsa), but he still didn't keep Aramaic words which I prefer "Amen, amen, I say to you", and didn't put deuterocanonical texts in them, like Chaldean Catholics always have. It's like some weird Protestant translation of what was originally a Catholic text.

The Murdock translation looks more reliable but as a result it does read pretty similarly to the KJV. It's also of the NT only.

The Peshitta texts pitch a challenge to proponents of the majority text due to having readings that are both Alexandrian and Byzantine/Antiochean. It still appears to be categorized as having majority readings for the most part.

I'd also be curious for translations of Old Syriac gospels.
