19 So the Lord God formed of the earth every beast of the field, and every fowl of the heaven, and brought them unto the [b]man to see how he would call them: for howsoever the man named the living creature, so was the name thereof.

20 The man therefore gave names unto all cattle, and to the fowl of the heaven, and to every beast of the field: but for Adam found he not an helper meet for him.
