Genesis 2:18-24
18Then the LordH3068 GodH430 saidH559, “It is not goodH2896 for the manH120 to be aloneH905; 1I will makeH6213 him a helperH5828 2suitableH5048 for him.” 193Out of the groundH127 the LordH3068 GodH430 formedH3335 everyH3605 beastH2421 of the fieldH7704 and everyH3605 birdH5775 of the 4skyH8064, and 5broughtH935 them to the manH120 to seeH7200 whatH4100 he would callH7121 them; and whateverH3605H834 the manH120 calledH7121 a livingH2416 creatureH5315, that was its nameH8034. 20The manH120 gaveH7121 namesH8034 to allH3605 the cattleH929, and to the birdsH5775 of the 6skyH8064, and to everyH3605 beastH2421 of the fieldH7704, but for 7AdamH121 there was not foundH4672 8a helperH5828 9suitableH5048 for him. 21So the LordH3068 GodH430 caused a 10deepH8639 sleepH8639 to fallH5307 upon the manH120, and he sleptH3462; then He tookH3947 oneH259 of his ribsH6763 and closedH5462 up the fleshH1320 at that placeH8478. 22The LordH3068 GodH430 11fashionedH1129 into a womanH802 12the ribH6763 whichH834 He had takenH3947 from the manH120, and broughtH935 her to the manH120. 23The manH120 saidH559, “13ThisH2088 is nowH6471 boneH6106 of my bonesH6106, And fleshH1320 of my fleshH1320; 14She shall be calledH7121 15WomanH802, BecauseH3588 16she was takenH3947 out of 17ManH376.” 2418For thisH3651 reasonH5921H3651 a manH376 shall leaveH5800 his fatherH1 and his motherH517, and be joinedH1692 to his wifeH802; and they shall becomeH1961 oneH259 fleshH1320.
