21 And YHWH God causes a deep sleep to fall on the man, and he sleeps, and He takes one of his ribs, and closes up flesh in its stead. 22 And YHWH God builds up the rib which He has taken out of the man into a woman, and brings her to the man; 23 and the man says, “This at last! Bone of my bone, and flesh of my flesh!” For this is called Woman, for this has been taken from Man; 24 therefore a man leaves his father and his mother, and has cleaved to his wife, and they have become one flesh. 25 And both of them are naked, the man and his wife, and they are not ashamed of themselves.
