21 So the Lord God caused a (A)deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he slept; then He took one of his ribs and closed up the flesh at that place. 22 The Lord God (a)fashioned into a woman (B)the rib which He had taken from the man, and brought her to the man. 23 The man said,
(C)This is now bone of my bones,
And flesh of my flesh;
(b)She shall be called (c)Woman,
Because (d)she was taken out of (e)Man.”
