Holman Christian Standard Bible
20 The man gave names to all the livestock, to the birds of the sky, and to every wild animal; but for the man[a] no helper was found as his complement. 21 So the Lord God caused a deep sleep to come over the man,(A) and he slept. God took one of his ribs and closed the flesh at that place. 22 Then the Lord God made the rib He had taken from the man into a woman and brought her to the man.(B)
