English version:

And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;

And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.

And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.

Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.

耶和华神使他沉睡，他就睡了。于是取下他的一条肋骨，又把肉合起来。

耶和华神就用那人身上所取的肋骨，造成一个女人，领她到那人跟前。

那人说，这是我骨中的骨，肉中的肉，可以称她为女人，因为她是从男人身上取出来的。

因此，人要离开父母与妻子连合，二人成为一体。
