1 Corinthians 11

¹Be yee followers of mee, euen as I am of Christ.

²Now brethren, I commend you, that ye remember all my things, and keepe the ordinances, as I deliuered them to you.

³But I wil that ye know, that Christ is the head of euery man: and the man is the womans head: and God is Christs head.

⁴Euery man praying or prophecying hauing any thing on his head, dishonoureth his head.

⁵But euery woman that prayeth or prophecieth bare headed, dishonoureth her head: for it is euen one very thing, as though she were shauen.

⁶Therefore if the woman be not couered, let her also be shorne: and if it be shame for a woman to be shorne or shauen, let her be couered.

⁷For a man ought not to couer his head: for as much as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man.

⁸For the man is not of the woman, but the woman of the man.

⁹For the man was not created for the womans sake: but the woman for the mans sake.

¹⁰Therefore ought the woman to haue power on her head, because of the Angels.

¹¹Neuertheles, neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man in the Lord.

¹²For as the woman is of the man, so is the man also by the woman: but all things are of God.

¹³Iudge in your selues, Is it comely that a woman pray vnto God vncouered?
