In the beginning, God

created the heavens and

the earth. And God saw

everything that he had

made, and behold, it was

very good. Thus the heav-

ens and the earth were

finished, and all the host

of them.

The man gave names

to all livestock and to

the birds of the

heavens and to every

beast of the field.

But for Adam

there was not

found a helper fit

for him.

So the LORD God

caused a deep

sleep to fall upon

the man.

...and while he slept

took one of his ribs

and closed up its

place with flesh.

And the rib that the LORD God

had taken from the man he

made into a woman and brought

her to the man. Then the man

said, "This at last is bone of my

bones and flesh of my flesh; she

shall be called Woman, because

she was taken out of Man."

Therefore a man shall leave

his father and his mother and

hold fast to his wife, and they

shall become one flesh. And

the man and his wife were both

naked and were not ashamed.
