  1. Genesis 2:7 Or soul

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 And 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 Then the man said,

(C)At last this is 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.”

All the (H)days that were ordained for me,
When as yet there was not one of them.
