"Kezdetben" is the widely accepted word in all prestigious Hungarian translations.
The Romanian term is correct.
P.S. Wouldn't it be easier if you just checked the available Bible translations?

Hello, You don't want it in Spanish? XD
In Spanish we say: En el principio... (just in this case of the Bible (Genesis), because we use to say "Al principio" in any other text).

What about French and Spanish? How are those famous words usually conveyed in the Bible in those languages?

Actually it's not the first book of the Bible, it's the first verse of the fourth book of the New Testament, the Gospel according to St. John.
You don't mention Russian either. It is:
В начале было Слово, и Слово было у Бога, и Слово было Бог.
(V nachale bylo Slovo, i Slovo bylo u Boga, i Slovo bylo Bog).

The normal Dutch translation would be 'In het begin', but since this alludes to the Bible, you should use the biblical language version which is 'In den beginne'.

You're right, but it's also the first verse of the first book of the Bible:
"In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth."

Fil-bidu (remove space between the words, after the hyphen)

"In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth."
Jack, it's both.
Although, in English and in German (and presumably in other languages), allusions to these words usuallly include a verb and really are based on the Book of John "Am Anfang war ..." ("was" plus impersonal construction is handier than "created" coupled with a subject).
It would be interesting if the two passages differ in some languages (because of inflection or for other reasons).

| Irish translation for the biblical phrase "In the beginning" | Dec 10, 2014 |
According to the An Biobla Naofa (The Irish Bible), it reads "I dtús báire" in Genesis and the same rendering for John 1:1 in the NT.
