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 ribs2:21 Or took part of the man’s side; similarly in verse 22 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."
