Genesis 2:16-25

16Then Adonai Elohim commanded the man saying, “From all the trees of the garden you are most welcome to eat.

17But of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil you must not eat. For when you eat from it, you most assuredly will die!

18Then Adonai Elohim said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. Let Me make a well-matched helper for him.”

19Adonai Elohim had formed from the ground every animal of the field and every flying creature of the sky, so He brought them to the man to see what he would call them. Whatever the man called them—each living creature—that was its name.

20So the man gave names to all of the livestock, and to the flying creatures of the sky, and to all the animals of the field; but for the man He did not find a well-matched helper for him.

21Adonai Elohim caused a deep sleep to fall on the man and he slept; and He took one of his ribs and closed up the flesh in its place.

22Adonai Elohim built the rib, which He had taken from the man, into a woman. Then He brought her to the man.

23Then the man said, “This one, at last, is bone of my bones and flesh from my flesh. This one is called woman, for from man was taken this one.”

24This is why a man leaves his father and his mother and clings to his wife; and they become one flesh.

25Now both of them were naked, the man and his wife, and they were not ashamed.
