Tobit 8:6
Print
You created Adam and you created Eve his wife to help and support him, and from the two of them has come the human race. You said, ‘It isn’t good for the man to be alone; let’s make for him a helper like himself.’
So they both arose, and prayed earnestly both together that health might be given them,
You created Adam and gave him his wife Eve to be his helper and support. They became the parents of the whole human race. You said, It is not good for man to live alone. I will make a suitable helper for him.
You made Adam, and you made his wife Eve to be his helper and support; and from these two the human race has come. You said, ‘It is not good for the man to be alone; let us make him a helper like himself.’
You made Adam, and you provided him with his wife Eve to be his help and support, and from these two the human race has sprung. You said, ‘It is not good for the man to be alone; let us provide him with a helper like himself.’
You made Adam, and for him you made his wife Eve as a helper and support. From the two of them the human race has sprung. You said, “It is not good that the man should be alone; let us make a helper for him like himself.”

Thou madest Adam and gavest him Eve his wife as a helper and support. From them the race of mankind has sprung. Thou didst say, ‘It is not good that the man should be alone; let us make a helper for him like himself.’

Soothly they rose up together, and they both prayed together busily, that health (or deliverance) should be given to them.
