Default Finding a match and pasting next to it

I have a list in column A and a list in column G. I want start at the top of
column G and find the each cells match in column A and past the info in the
cells from columns G - H in the cell B & C of the matched cells. So basically
I'm lining up info based on two matched columns. Please help.

Assuming list start in A2 and G2 and go to row 101
in B2 use =VLOOKUP(A2,$G$2:$H$5,1,FALSE) (of course, the result will equal
A2)
in C2 use =VLOOKUP(A2,$G$2:$H$5,2,FALSE)
best wishes

Thanks but that's not quite what I'm looking for.

My lists are not same and are not in order

If I start with cell G2 I need to find the matching value of the cell in
column A. Once it is identified (say I find it in A13) I need to cut and past
cells g2 - I2 into corresponding cells b13 - d13.
