Cabdil 1 1.

1   Ayns y toshiaght chroo Jee niau as thalloo.   In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
2   As va'n thalloo gyn cummey, as feayn; as va dorraghys er eaghtyr y diunid: as ren spyrryd Yee gleashagh er eaghtyr ny ushtaghyn.   And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.    
3   As dooyrt Jee, Lhig da soilshey 've ayn: as va soilshey ayn.   And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.    
4   As honnick Jee yn soilshey dy row eh mie: as ren Jee scarrey yn soilshey veih yn dorraghys.   And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.    
5   As denmys Jee yn soilshey Laa, as y dorraghys denmys eh Oie: as y fastyr as y moghrey va'n chied laa.   And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.

1819 Edition




The need for this edition was brought before the Society in 1817, by the Rev. Hugh Stowell, the Rev. Robert Brown and the Rev. Samuel Haining.

It was stated that of the 21,000 adult population not more than 7,000 understood English better than Manks; and that the remaining 14,000 were little aquainted with English.
