Ode to a Woman of Strength
10 A woman of strength who can find?
She is far more precious than jewels.(A)

and he will have no lack of gain.
12 She does him good and not harm
all the days of her life.

18 Then the Lord God said, “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper as his partner.”(A) 19 So out of the ground the Lord God formed every animal of the field and every bird of the air and brought them to the man to see what he would call them, and whatever the man called every living creature, that was its name.(B) 20 The man gave names to all cattle and to the birds of the air and to every animal of the field, but for the man[a] there was not found a helper as his partner. 21 So the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he slept; then he took one of his ribs and closed up its place with flesh.(C) 22 And the rib that the Lord God had taken from the man he made into a woman and brought her to the man. 23 Then 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.”(D)
24 Therefore a man leaves his father and his mother and clings to his wife, and they become one flesh.(E) 25 And the man and his wife were both naked and were not ashamed.(F)

New International Version
Genesis 2:18-25
New International Version
18 The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.”(A)
19 Now the Lord God had formed out of the ground all the wild animals(B) and all the birds in the sky.(C) He brought them to the man to see what he would name them; and whatever the man called(D) each living creature,(E) that was its name. 20 So the man gave names to all the livestock, the birds in the sky and all the wild animals.
But for Adam[a] no suitable helper(F) was found. 21 So the Lord God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep;(G) and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man’s ribs[b] and then closed up the place with flesh. 22 Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib[c](H) he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man.
23 The man said,
“This is now bone of my bones
and flesh of my flesh;(I)
she shall be called(J) ‘woman,’
for she was taken out of man.(K)”
24 That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united(L) to his wife, and they become one flesh.(M)
25 Adam and his wife were both naked,(N) and they felt no shame.
