1 Corinthians 11:7-16

7For surely a man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God. But the woman is the glory of man.

8For man is not from woman, but woman from man.

9Neither was man created for the woman’s sake, but woman for the man’s sake.

10For this reason the woman ought to have a symbol of authority on her head, because of the angels.

11In any case—in the Lord—woman is not independent of man and man is not independent of woman.

12For just as the woman came from the man, so also the man comes through the woman—but all things are from God.

13Judge for yourselves—is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered?

14Doesn’t the natural order of things teach you—if a man has long hair, it is a disgrace for him;

15but if a woman has long hair, it is her glory, for her hair was given to her as a covering.

16But if anyone intends to be contentious, we have no such custom—nor do God’s communities.
