1 Corinthians 11:5-10

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.

10For thisG5124 causeG1223 oughtG3784 the womanG1135 to haveG2192 authorityG1849 onG1909 her headG2776 becauseG1223 of the angelsG32.1
