1Cor 11:1: Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ.

1Cor 11:2: Now I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all things, and keep the ordinances, as I delivered them to you.

1Cor 11:3: 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.

1Cor 11:4: Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoureth his head.

1Cor 11:5: But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven.

1Cor 11:6: For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.

1Cor 11:7: For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man.

1Cor 11:8: For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man.

1Cor 11:9: Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.

1Cor 11:10: For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels.

1Cor 11:11: Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man, in the Lord.

1Cor 11:12: For as the woman is of the man, even so is the man also by the woman; but all things of God.

1Cor 11:13: Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered?

1Cor 11:14: Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?

1Cor 11:15: But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering.

1Cor 11:16: But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.
