1 Corinthians 11:8-12

8For 1man 2does not originate from woman, but woman from man;

9for indeed man was not created for the woman’s sake, but 3woman for the man’s sake.

10Therefore the woman should have a symbol of authority on her head, because of the angels.

11However, in the Lord, neither is woman 4independent of man, nor is man 5independent of woman.

12For as the woman originated from the man, so also the man has his birth through the woman; and 6all things originate 7from God.
