Genesis 2:23-25
New International Version
23 The man said,
“This is now bone of my bones
and flesh of my flesh;(A)
she shall be called(B) ‘woman,’
for she was taken out of man.(C)”
24 That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united(D) to his wife, and they become one flesh.(E)
25 Adam and his wife were both naked,(F) and they felt no shame.

25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
