1 Corinthians 11:5-10

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.
