1 Corinthians 11 💬 📚 📜 📕 ↷

3 And I will have you know, that the head of every man, is Christ: and the head of the woman, is the man: and the head of Christ, is God.

4 Every man praying or prophesying with his head covered, dishonoureth his head.

5 But every woman praying or prophesying with her head not covered, dishonoureth her head: for it is all one as if she were made bald.

6 For if a woman be not covered, let her be polled. But if it be a foul thing for a woman to be polled or made bald, let her cover her head.

7 The man truly ought not to cover his head, because he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of the man.

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

9 For the man was not created for the woman, but the woman for the man.

10 (Therefore ought the woman to have power upon her head for the Angels.)

11 But yet neither the man without the woman; nor the woman without the man, in our Lord.

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