Genesis 2:22-24
New King James Version
22 Then the rib which the Lord God had taken from man He [a]made into a woman, (A)and He (B)brought her to the man.
23 And Adam said:
“This is now (C)bone of my bones
And flesh of my flesh;
She shall be called [b]Woman,
Because she was (D)taken out of [c]Man.”
24 (E)Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and (F)be[d] joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.
