Genesis 2:24

The First Woman

²³ And the man said, This, one, now, is bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh! This, one shall be called Woman, for, out of a man, hath this one been taken. ²⁴ For this cause, will a man leave his father and his mother, and cleave unto his wife, and they shall become one flesh. ²⁵ And they were both of them naked, the man and his wife, - and put not each other to shame.
