1 Corinthians 11:7-16

7For manG435 indeed oughtG3784 not to have his headG2776 coveredG2619, beingG1510 1God's imageG1504 and gloryG1391; but womanG1135 isG1510 man's gloryG1391.

8For manG435 isG1510 not of womanG1135, but womanG1135 of manG435.

9For alsoG2532 manG435 was not created for the sakeG1223 of the womanG1135, but womanG1135 for the sakeG1223 of the manG435.

10Therefore oughtG3784 the womanG1135 to have authorityG1849 on her headG2776, on accountG1223 of the angelsG32.

11HoweverG4133, neither [is] womanG1135 without manG435, nor manG435 without womanG1135, in [the] LordG2962.

12For as the womanG1135 [is] of the manG435, so alsoG2532 [is] the manG435 by the womanG1135, but all thingsG3956 of 2GodG2316.

13JudgeG2919 in yourselves: isG1510 it comely that a womanG1135 should prayG4336 to 3GodG2316 uncovered?

14Does not evenG3761 natureG5449 itself teachG1321 you, that manG435, if he have longG2863 hairG2863, it isG1510 a dishonour to him?

15But womanG1135, if she have longG2863 hairG2863, [it isG1510] gloryG1391 to her; for the longG2863 hairG2863 isG1510 givenG1325 [to her] in lieu of a veil.

16But if any oneG5100 thinkG1380 to beG1510 contentious, we have no suchG5108 customG4914, nor the assemblies of 4GodG2316.
