Genesis 2:22-24

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

²²And the rib that the Lord God had taken from the man he made into a woman and brought her to the man. ²³Then the man said,

“This at last is bone of my bones
and flesh of my flesh;
this one shall be called Woman,
for out of Man this one was taken.”^(A)

²⁴Therefore a man leaves his father and his mother and clings to his wife, and they become one flesh.^(B)
