Genesis 2:18 in Context — Genesis 2
16 E mandou o SENHOR Deus ao homem, dizendo: De toda árvore do jardim comerás;
17 Mas da árvore do conhecimento do bem e do mal não comerás dela; porque no dia que dela comeres, morrerás.
18 E disse o SENHOR Deus: Não é bom que o homem esteja só; farei para ele ajuda idônea para ele.
19 Formou, pois, o SENHOR Deus da terra todo animal do campo, e toda ave dos céus, e trouxe-os a Adão, para que visse como lhes havia de chamar; e tudo o que Adão chamou aos animais viventes, esse é seu nome.
20 E pôs Adão nomes a todo animal e ave dos céus e a todo animal do campo: mas para Adão não achou ajuda que estivesse idônea para ele.
