| [16]And God comaundide to hym and seide, Ete thou of ech tre of paradis; |
[16]And the LORDH3068 GodH430 commandedH6680 H8762the manH120, sayingH559 , H8800Of every treeH6086 of the gardenH1588 thou mayest freelyH398 H8800eatH398:[H8799] |

[17]But of the treeH6086 of the knowledgeH1847 of goodH2896 and evilH7451, thou shalt not eatH398 H8799of it: for in the dayH3117 that thou eatestH398 H8800thereof thou shalt surelyH4191 H8800dieH4191.[H8799] |
| [18]And the Lord God seide, It is not good that a man be aloone, make we to hym an help lijk to hym silf. |
[18]And the LORDH3068 GodH430 saidH559 , H8799It is not goodH2896 that the manH120 should beH1961 H8800alone; I will makeH6213 H8799him an help meet for himH5828. |

| [21]Therfore the Lord God sente sleep in to Adam, and whanne he slepte, God took oon of hise ribbis, and fillide fleisch for it. |
[21]And the LORDH3068 GodH430 causedH5307 a deep sleepH8639 to fallH5307 H8686upon AdamH121, and he sleptH3462 : H8799and he tookH3947 H8799oneH259 of his ribsH6763, and closed upH5462 H8799the flesh instead thereofH1320; |

[23]And AdamH120 saidH559 , H8799ThisH2063 is nowH6471 boneH6106 of my bonesH6106, and fleshH1320 of my fleshH1320: sheH2063 shall be calledH7121 H8735WomanH802, because sheH2063 was takenH3947 H8795out of ManH376. |
| [24]Wherfor a man schal forsake fadir and modir, and schal cleue to his wijf, and thei schulen be tweyne in o fleisch. |
[24]ThereforeH3651 shall a manH376 leaveH5800 H8799his fatherH1 and his motherH517, and shall cleaveH1692 H8804unto his wifeH802: and they shall be oneH259 fleshH1320. |
