Verse
1 Corinthians - ch 11 v 1 - 20
- Be my imitators, even as I also am of Christ.
- Now I praise you, that in all things ye are mindful of me; and that as I have directed you, ye keep the directions.
- But I wish you to know that the Christ is the head of every man, but woman's head is the man, and the Christ's head God.
- Every man praying or prophesying, having anything on his head, puts his head to shame.
- But every woman praying or prophesying with her head uncovered puts her own head to shame; for it is one and the same as a shaved woman.
- For if a woman be not covered, let her hair also be cut off. But if it be shameful to a woman to have her hair cut off or to be shaved, let her be covered.
- For man indeed ought not to have his head covered, being God's image and glory; but woman is man's glory.
- For man is not of woman, but woman of man.
- For also man was not created for the sake of the woman, but woman for the sake of the man.
- Therefore ought the woman to have authority on her head, on account of the angels.
- However, neither is woman without man, nor man without woman, in the Lord.
- For as the woman is of the man, so also is the man by the woman, but all things of God.
- Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman should pray to God uncovered?
- Does not even nature itself teach you, that man, if he have long hair, it is a dishonour to him?
- But woman, if she have long hair, it is glory to her; for the long hair is given to her in lieu of a veil.
- But if any one think to be contentious, we have no such custom, nor the assemblies of God.
- But in prescribing to you on this which I now enter on, I do not praise, namely, that ye come together, not for the better, but for the worse.
- For first, when ye come together in assembly, I hear there exist divisions among you, and I partly give credit to it.
- For there must also be sects among you, that the approved may become manifest among you.
- When ye come therefore together into one place, it is not to eat the Lord's supper.
