1 Corinthians 11:3
NASB
1 Cor 11:3
&
But I want you to understand that Christ is the head of every man, and the man is the head of a woman, and God is the head of Christ.
1 Cor 11:4
&
Every man who has {something} on his head while praying or prophesying disgraces his head.
1 Cor 11:5
&
But every woman who has her head uncovered while praying or prophesying disgraces her head, for she is one and the same as the woman whose head is shaved.
1 Cor 11:6
&
For if a woman does not cover her head, let her also have her hair cut off; but if it is disgraceful for a woman to have her hair cut off or her head shaved, let her cover her head.
1 Cor 11:7
&
For a man ought not to have his head covered, since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man.
1 Cor 11:8
&
For man does not originate from woman, but woman from man;
1 Cor 11:9
&
for indeed man was not created for the woman's sake, but woman for the man's sake.
1 Cor 11:10
&
Therefore the woman ought to have {a symbol of} authority on her head, because of the angels.
1 Cor 11:11
&
However, in the Lord, neither is woman independent of man, nor is man independent of woman.
1 Cor 11:12
&
For as the woman originates from the man, so also the man {has his birth} through the woman; and all things originate from God.
1 Cor 11:13
&
Judge for yourselves: is it proper for a woman to pray to God {with her head} uncovered?
1 Cor 11:14
&
Does not even nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him,
1 Cor 11:15
&
but if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her? For her hair is given to her for a covering.
1 Cor 11:16
&
But if one is inclined to be contentious, we have no other practice, nor have the churches of God.
