When I say modern, I mean that I took the English text from a Christian site, used Bing Translator to translate it back to Greek, then back to Hebrew... and finally, back to English, so we could understand it.
Kinda means the same. Maybe human translators would do a better job, but maybe they'd let an agenda twist things a little. Easy to see how a couple of translations could cause some confusion, though.

Original text:
Genesis 2:21-25
So the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and while he slept took one of his ribs and closed up its place with flesh. And the rib that the LORD God had taken from the man he made into a woman and brought her to the man. Then the man said, “This at last is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.” Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. And the man and his wife were both naked and were not ashamed.
