1 Corinthians 11:3-5

3But I want you to understand that Christ is the 1head of every man, and 23the man is the head of a woman, and God is the 4head of Christ.

4Every man who has something on his head while praying or 5prophesying disgraces his head.

5But every 6woman who has her head uncovered while praying or prophesying disgraces her head, for it is one and the same as the woman 7whose head is 8shaved.
