    19Now the LORD God had formed out of the ground every beast of the field and every bird of the air. He brought them to the man to see what he would name them. Whatever the man called each living creature, that became its name.

    20The man gave names to all the livestock, to the birds of the air, and to all the wild animals. But no suitable helper was found for the man.

    21So the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall on the man, and while he slept, He took one of his ribs and closed up the place with flesh.

    22Then the LORD God formed the rib He had taken from the man into a woman and brought her to the man.

    23The man said, 'This one, at last, is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called "woman," for she was taken out of man.'

    24For this reason, a man shall leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.

    25The man and his wife were both naked, and they felt no shame.
