Genesis 2:22-24
Contemporary English Version
22 the Lord made a woman out of the rib.
The Lord God brought her to the man, 23 and the man exclaimed,
“Here is someone like me!
She is part of my body,
my own flesh and bones.
She came from me, a man.
So I will name her Woman!”[a]
24 (A) That's why a man will leave his own father and mother. He marries a woman, and the two of them become like one person.
