1 Corinthians 11:2-16

2NowG1161 I praiseG1867 youG4771, brethrenG80, thatG3754 ye rememberG3403 meG1473 in all thingsG3956, andG2532 keepG2722 the ordinancesG3588G3862, asG2531 I deliveredG3860 them to youG4771.

3ButG1161 I would haveG2309 youG4771 knowG1492, thatG3754 the headG3588G2776 of everyG3956 manG435 isG1510 ChristG3588G5547; andG1161 the headG2776 of the womanG1135 is the manG3588G435; andG1161 the headG2776 of ChristG5547 is GodG3588G2316. 4EveryG3956 manG435 prayingG4336 orG2228 prophesyingG4395, havingG2192 his headG2776 coveredG2596, dishonourethG2617 hisG846 headG3588G2776. 5ButG1161 everyG3956 womanG1135 that prayethG4336 orG2228 prophesiethG4395 withG3588G2776 her headG3588G2776 uncoveredG177 dishonourethG2617 herG1438 headG3588G2776: forG1063 that isG1510 even allG2532 oneG1520 as ifG3587 sheG846 were shavenG3587. 6ForG1063 ifG1487 the womanG1135 beG2619 notG3756 coveredG2619, let herG2751 alsoG2532 be shornG2751: butG1161 ifG1487 it be a shameG150 for a womanG1135 to be shornG2751 orG2228 shavenG3587, let her be coveredG2619. 7ForG1063 a manG435 indeedG3303 oughtG3784 notG3756 to coverG2619 his headG3588G2776, forasmuch as he isG5225 the imageG1504 andG2532 gloryG1391 of GodG2316: butG1161 the womanG1135 isG1510 the gloryG1391 of the manG435. 8ForG1063 the manG435 isG1510 notG3756 ofG1537 the womanG1135; butG235 the womanG1135 ofG1537 the manG435. 9NeitherG2532 wasG2936 the manG435 createdG2936 forG1223 the womanG3588G1135; butG235 the womanG1135 forG1223 the manG3588G435. 10ForG1223 this causeG3778 oughtG3784 the womanG3588G1135 to haveG2192 authorityG1849 onG1909 her headG3588G2776 because ofG1223 the angelsG3588G32. 11NeverthelessG4133 neitherG3777 is the manG435 withoutG5565 the womanG1135, neitherG3777 the womanG1135 withoutG5565 the manG435, inG1722 the LordG2962. 12ForG1063 asG5618 the womanG3588G1135 is ofG1537 the manG3588G435, even soG3779 is the manG3588G435 alsoG2532 byG1223 the womanG3588G1135; butG1161 all thingsG3956 ofG1537 GodG3588G2316. 13JudgeG2919 inG1722 yourselvesG4771: is itG1510 comelyG4241 that a womanG1135 prayG4336 unto GodG3588G2316 uncoveredG177? 14DothG2228 notG3761 evenG3303 natureG3588G5449 itselfG846 teachG1321 youG4771, thatG3754, ifG1437 a manG435 have long hairG2863, it isG1510 a shameG819 unto himG846? 15ButG1161 ifG1437 a womanG1135 have long hairG2863, it isG1510 a gloryG1391 to herG846: forG3754 her hairG3588G2864 is givenG1325 herG846 forG473 a coveringG4018. 16ButG1161 ifG1487 any manG5100 seemG1380 to beG1510 contentiousG5380, weG1473 haveG2192 noG3756 suchG5108 customG4914, neitherG3761 the AssembliesG3588G1577 of GodG3588G2316.
