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.
