18 And God said, |It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper suitable for him.| 19 And out of the ground God formed every tame animal, and every wild animal, and every flying creature of the sky, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them. And whatever the man called each living creature, that was its name. 20 And the man gave names to all the tame animals, and to all the flying creatures of the sky, and to every wild animal; but for Adam there was not found a helper suitable for him. 21 So God caused a deep sleep to fall on the man, and he slept; and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh at that place. 22 And the rib that God had taken from the man he fashioned into a woman and brought her to the man. 23 And the man said, |This at last is bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh. She will be called Woman, because this one was taken out of Man.| Genesis 2:18-23, New Heart English Bible. Public domain.
