Genesis 2:21-23

EasyEnglish Bible

²¹ So the Lord God caused the man to sleep.^[a] While the man was sleeping, God took a rib from the man. Then he closed up the place in his body and he covered it again.^{[b] 22} The Lord God used the man's rib to make a woman. He brought the woman to the man.

²³ Then the man said, ‘Finally, this is someone who is right for me. She has bones that are taken from my bones. Her body comes from my body. I will call her “woman” because God used me, a man, to make her.’
