Genesis 2:19 · Berean Standard Bible

Context
17lakini kamwe usile matunda ya mti wa kujua mema na mabaya, kwa maana siku utakapokula matunda yake, hakika utakufa.” 18Bwana Mungu akasema, “Si vyema huyu mtu awe peke yake. Nitamfanyia msaidizi wa kumfaa.” 19Basi Bwana Mungu alikuwa amefanyiza kutoka ardhi wanyama wote wa porini na ndege wote wa angani. Akawaleta kwa huyu mtu aone atawaitaje, nalo jina lolote alilokiita kila kiumbe hai, likawa ndilo jina lake. 20Hivyo Adamu akawapa majina wanyama wote wa kufugwa, ndege wa angani, na wanyama wote wa porini.
Lakini kwa Adamu hakupatikana msaidizi wa kumfaa. 21Hivyo Bwana Mungu akamfanya Adamu kulala usingizi mzito, naye alipokuwa amelala akachukua moja ya mbavu zake, akapafunika mahali pale kwa nyama.
