It's very similar in Hebrew. except that Hebrew letters are used as numbers. So Genesis 1:1 would be (right to left):
בר×שית ××´×
Instead of a colon (:) Hebrew separates the chapter and verse with a symbol called "gershayim" (גרשיי×) that looks like quotation marks.
You can't write Ephesians 2 8-10 like this, because this is not a book of the Hebrew Bible. Hebrew translations of the New Testament generally use western numbers and English book names.
