18Thenv Yahweh God said, “it is not good that the manw is alone. I will make for him a helper as his counterpart.”x 19And out of the ground Yahweh God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the sky,y and he brought each to the manz to see what he would call it. And whatever the mana called that living creature was its name. 20And the manb gave namesc to every domesticated animal and to the birds of heavend and to all the wild animals.e But for the man there was not found a helper as his counterpart.f 21And Yahweh God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man.g Whileh he slept, he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh where it had been.i 22And Yahweh God fashioned the rib which he had taken from the manj into a woman and brought her to the man.k 23And the manl said,
“She is nowm bone from my bones
and flesh from my flesh;
shen shall be called ‘Woman,’
for she was takeno from man.”
24Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and shall cling to his wife, and they shall be as one flesh. 25And the manp and his wife, both of them, were naked, and they were not ashamed.
