Genesis 2:19-20
19 So out of the ground the Lord God formed [1] every beast of the field and every bird of the heavens and brought them to the man to see what he would call them. And whatever the man called every living creature, that was its name.20 The man gave names to all livestock and to the birds of the heavens and to every beast of the field. But for Adam [2] there was not found a helper fit for him.
