Okay, i think i sent a translation of the last half into Jûdajca to
Conlang (on maybe it was here?), but now i'll try a full one here:
"Ê recold â hujjêr cujajtât dixuyês,
Ammâl â hujaftrî - celnîl pacjêj H' es."
(and it almost rhymes, too! /eS/ first line, /ES/ second)
<H'> is read _Hayêm_, /ha'Zem/.
What it *really* looks like can be found:

A few (at least i think they are) interesting features of this sentence:
JÊR (< VÊRÎ, nom. vêrus), as opposed to being derived from VÊRITÂS
AJTÂT (< AETÂTIS, nom. aetâs) for "time, instance" different than "time
(abstract)" like Hebrew "pa`am/zeman" and Spanish "vez/tiempo"
DIXUYÊS (< DICTUS EST) merger of the compound verb for "was spoken"
AMMÂL (< AMÂRE) gemination of the M since it fits a Hebrew wordform
CaCCâC
PACJÊJ (<FACIÊÎ, nom. faciês) has been Hebraicized - the non-construct
singular form fits a Hebrew plural construct wordform ('segolate')
perfectly, making _pacjêj_ the plural construct form, and back-forming
non-construct: s._pêcî_ p._pcajîm_ and construct s._pêcî_ (same as n.c.)
