Genesis 2:18-20 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

18. The Lord God also said: "It is not good for the man to be alone. Let us make a helper for him similar to himself."

19. Therefore, the Lord God, having formed from the soil all the animals of the earth and all the flying creatures of the air, brought them to Adam, in order to see what he would call them. For whatever Adam would call any living creature, that would be its name.

20. And Adam called each of the living things by their names: all the flying creatures of the air, and all the wild beasts of the land. Yet truly, for Adam, there was not found a helper similar to himself.
