21 So the LORD God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep, and while he slept, He took one of the man’s ribs* and closed up the area with flesh. 22 And from the rib that the LORD God had taken from the man, He made a woman and brought her to him. 23 And the man said:

"This is now bone of my bones

and flesh of my flesh;

she shall be called ‘woman,’

for out of man she was taken."
