17 And from [the] tree of the knowledge good and evil not you must eat from it for on [the] day eating you from it certainly you will die.
but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, you shall not eat of it; for in the day that you eat of it you will surely die."

And God said, "It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper suitable for him."
19 And he formed Yahweh God from the ground every animal of the field and every bird of the heavens and he brought [them] to the man to see what? will he call to it and all that he called to it the man a creature living it [was] name its.
And out of the ground God formed every tame animal, and every wild animal, and every flying creature of the sky, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them. And whatever the man called each living creature, that was its name.

And the rib that God had taken from the man he fashioned into a woman and brought her to the man.
23 And he said the man this [one] this time [is] bone from bones my and flesh from flesh my to this [one] will be called woman for from a man she was taken this [one].
And the man said, "This at last is bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh. She will be called Woman, because this one was taken out of Man."
24 There-fore he leaves a man father his and mother his and he cleaves to wife his and they become flesh one.
Therefore a man will leave his father and his mother, and will join with his wife, and the two will become one flesh.
25 And they were both of them naked the man and wife his and not they were ashamed.
And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
