Now, the earth was without form and empty, darkness was over the deep's surface, and the Spirit of God was hovering above the water. 

3. zhef  edwo  zhun  spelzhi  gdi,  hiye  fa'y'lis,  zhef  ye  zhun  fa'y'lis.  
And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light. 

4. edwo  zhun  widzhi  to  fa'y'lis  fwi  bel, zhef  di  zhun  duwomzho  to  fa'y'lis  id  to  droyoti. 
God saw the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. 

5. edwo  zhun  spelzho  to  fa'y'lis  d'yun  zhef  to  droyoti  di zhun  spelzho  nesht.  zhef  ye zhun  dov'yun,  zhef  ye zhun  fajun -- bus d'yun.
