Verse
1 Corinthians - ch 11 v 1 - 20
- Be imitators of me, even as I also am of Christ.
- Now I praise you, brothers, that you remember me in all things, and hold firm the traditions, even as I delivered them to you.
- But I would have you know that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God.
- Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonors his head.
- But every woman praying or prophesying with her head unveiled dishonors her head. For it is one and the same thing as if she were shaved.
- For if a woman is not covered, let her also be shorn. But if it is shameful for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered.
- For a man indeed ought not to have his head covered, because he is the image and glory of God, but the woman is the glory of the man.
- For man is not from woman, but woman from man;
- for neither was man created for the woman, but woman for the man.
- For this cause the woman ought to have authority on her head, because of the angels.
- Nevertheless, neither is the woman independent of the man, nor the man independent of the woman, in the Lord.
- For as woman came from man, so a man also comes through a woman; but all things are from God.
- Judge for yourselves. Is it appropriate that a woman pray to God unveiled?
- Doesn't even nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him?
- But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her, for her hair is given to her for a covering.
- But if any man seems to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither do God's assemblies.
- But in giving you this command, I don't praise you, that you come together not for the better but for the worse.
- For first of all, when you come together in the assembly, I hear that divisions exist among you, and I partly believe it.
- For there also must be factions among you, that those who are approved may be revealed among you.
- When therefore you assemble yourselves together, it is not the Lord's supper that you eat.
