Genesis 1:26-28
Holman Christian Standard Bible
26 Then God said, “Let Us(A) make man in Our image, according to Our likeness.(B) They will rule the fish of the sea, the birds of the sky, the livestock, all the earth,[a] and the creatures that crawl[b] on the earth.”(C)
27 So God created man in His own image;
He created him in the image of God;
He created them male and female.(D)
28 God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth,(E) and subdue it. Rule the fish of the sea, the birds of the sky, and every creature that crawls[c] on the earth.”

Genesis 2:21-24
Holman Christian Standard Bible
21 So the Lord God caused a deep sleep to come over the man,(A) and he slept. God took one of his ribs and closed the flesh at that place. 22 Then the Lord God made the rib He had taken from the man into a woman and brought her to the man.(B) 23 And the man said:
This one, at last, is bone of my bone
and flesh of my flesh;
this one will be called “woman,”
for she was taken from man.(C)
24 This is why a man leaves his father and mother and bonds with his wife, and they become one flesh.(D)
