1 Corinthians 11:3-9

3ButG1161 I would haveG2309 youG5209 knowG1492, thatG3754 the headG2776 of everyG3956 manG435 isG2076 ChristG5547; andG1161 the headG2776 of the womanG1135 is the manG435; andG1161 the headG2776 of ChristG5547 is GodG2316.

4EveryG3956 manG435 prayingG4336 orG2228 prophesyingG4395, havingG2192 his headG2776 coveredG2596, dishonourethG2617 hisG846 headG2776.

5ButG1161 everyG3956 womanG1135 that prayethG4336 orG2228 prophesiethG4395 with her headG2776 uncoveredG177 dishonourethG2617 herG1438 headG2776: forG1063 that isG2076 evenG2532 all oneG1520 as ifG846 she were shavedG3587.

6ForG1063 ifG1487 the womanG1135 isG2619 notG3756 coveredG2619, let herG2751 alsoG2532 be shornG2751: butG1161 ifG1487 it is a shameG149 for a womanG1135 to be shornG2751 orG2228 shavedG3587, let her be coveredG2619.

7ForG1063 a manG435 indeedG3303 oughtG3784 notG3756 to coverG2619 his headG2776, forasmuch as he isG5225 the imageG1504 andG2532 gloryG1391 of GodG2316: butG1161 the womanG1135 isG2076 the gloryG1391 of the manG435.

8ForG1063 the manG435 isG2076 notG3756 fromG1537 the womanG1135; butG235 the womanG1135 fromG1537 the manG435.

9NeitherG3756 wasG2936 the manG435 createdG2936 forG1223 the womanG1135; butG235 the womanG1135 forG1223 the manG435.
