1 Corinthians 11:2-16

2NowG1161 I commendG1867 youG4771 forG3754 rememberingG3403 meG1473 in everythingG3956 andG2532 for maintainingG2722 theG3588 traditionsG3862, just asG2531 I passed them onG3860 to youG4771. 3ButG1161 I wantG2309 youG4771 to understandG1492 thatG3754 theG3588 headG2776 of everyG3956 manG435 isG1510 ChristG5547, andG1161 the headG2776 of the womanG1135 is manG435, andG1161 the headG2776 of ChristG5547 is GodG2316.

4EveryG3956 manG435 who praysG4336 orG2228 prophesiesG4395 withG2192 his headG2776 coveredG2596 dishonorsG2617 hisG846 headG2776. 5AndG1161 everyG3956 womanG1135 who praysG4336 orG2228 prophesiesG4395 withG3588 her headG2776 uncoveredG177 dishonorsG2617 herG846 headG2776, forG1063 it isG1510 justG1520G2532G3588G846 as if her head were shavedG3587. 6IfG1487 a womanG1135 does notG3756 cover her headG2619, she should have her hair cut offG2751. AndG1161 ifG1487 it is shamefulG150 for a womanG1135 to have her hair cutG2751 orG2228 shaved offG3587, she should cover her headG2619.

A manG435 oughtG3784 notG3756 to coverG2619 his headG2776, since he isG5225 the imageG1504 andG2532 gloryG1391 of GodG2316; butG1161 theG3588 womanG1135 isG1510 the gloryG1391 of manG435. 8ForG1063 manG435 did not comeG1510G3756 fromG1537 womanG1135, butG235 womanG1135 fromG1537 manG435. 9NeitherG2532G1063G3756 was manG435 createdG2936 forG1223 womanG1135, butG235 womanG1135 forG1223 manG435. 10For this reasonG1223G3778 a womanG1135 oughtG3784 to haveG2192 a sign of authorityG1849 onG19091 her headG2776, because ofG1223 theG3588 angelsG32.

11InG1722 the LordG2962, howeverG4133, womanG1135 is notG3777 independentG5565 of manG435, norG3777 is manG435 independentG5565 of womanG1135. 12ForG1063 just asG5618 womanG1135 came fromG1537 manG435, soG3779 alsoG2532 manG435 is born ofG1223 womanG1135. ButG1161 everythingG3956 comes fromG1537 GodG2316.

13JudgeG2919 forG1722 yourselvesG4771G846: Is itG1510 properG4241 for a womanG1135 to prayG4336 to GodG2316 with her head uncoveredG177? 14Doesn’tG3761 natureG5449 itselfG846 teachG1321 youG4771 thatG3754 ifG3303G1437 a manG435 has long hairG2863, it isG1510 a disgraceG819 to himG846, 15butG1161 that ifG1437 a womanG1135 has long hairG2863, it isG1510 herG846 gloryG1391? ForG3754 long hairG2864 is givenG1325 to herG846 asG473 a coveringG4018. 16IfG1487 anyoneG5100 is inclined to disputeG1380G1510G5380 this, weG1473 haveG2192 noG3756 other practiceG4914, norG3761 do theG3588 churchesG1577 of GodG2316.
