哥林多前書 11
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
11 你們要效法我，正如我效法基督一樣。
敬拜的禮儀
2 我讚賞你們，因為你們凡事都想到我，並堅守我傳給你們的各種教導。
3 我希望你們知道，基督是男人的頭，丈夫是妻子的頭，上帝是基督的頭。 4 男人在禱告和講道時，若蒙著頭，就是羞辱自己的頭。 5 但婦女在禱告和講道時，若不蒙著頭，就是羞辱自己的頭，因為她就像剃光了頭髮一樣。 6 因此，如果婦女不願意把頭蒙起來，就該把頭髮剪掉。如果她覺得剪髮或剃頭是羞恥的，就應該蒙頭。 7 然而，男人不該蒙頭，因為男人是上帝的形像和榮耀，而女人是男人的榮耀。 8 因為男人並非出自女人，而女人卻是出自男人。 9 並且男人不是為女人而造的，女人卻是為男人而造的。
10 因此為了天使的緣故，女人在頭上應該有服權柄的記號。 11 不過在主裡面，女人不可沒有男人，男人不可沒有女人。 12 因為女人是從男人而來，男人又是女人生的，但萬物都是來自上帝。
13 你們自行斟酌吧，女人向上帝禱告時不蒙頭合適嗎？ 14 按著人的天性，難道你們不知道男人留長髮是他的羞辱， 15 女人留長髮是她的榮耀嗎？因為頭髮是用來給女人蓋頭的。 16 如果有誰想反駁這些話，我只能說，這是我們和上帝的眾教會向來遵守的規矩。
守聖餐的規矩
17 現在我有話要吩咐你們，不是稱讚你們，因為你們聚會不但無益，反而有害。 18 首先，我聽說你們在聚會的時候拉幫結派，我相信這些話有幾分真實。 19 你們中間必然會有分裂的事，好顯出誰是經得起考驗的。
20 你們聚會的時候，不是在吃主的晚餐。 21 因為你們進餐的時候，各人只顧吃自己的，結果有些人挨餓，有些人醉酒。 22 難道你們不可以在家裡吃喝嗎？還是你們輕看上帝的教會，存心羞辱那些貧窮的弟兄姊妹呢？我該說什麼呢？稱讚你們嗎？不可能！
23 我把從主領受的傳給了你們，就是：主耶穌被出賣的那天晚上，祂拿起一個餅來， 24 向上帝祝謝後掰開，說，「這是我的身體，是為你們掰開的，你們要這樣做，為的是紀念我。」 25 晚餐後，祂又照樣拿起杯來，說，「這杯是用我的血立的新約。你們每逢喝的時候，要這樣做，為的是紀念我。」 26 所以，每當你們吃這餅、喝這杯的時候，就是宣告主的死，一直到主再來。
27 因此，無論是誰，若以不正確的心態吃主的餅、喝主的杯，就是得罪主的身體和主的血。 28 所以，人要先自我省察，才可以吃這餅喝這杯。 29 因為守聖餐的時候，若有人隨便吃喝，忘記了這是主的身體，他就是自招審判。 30 正因如此，你們當中有許多人身體軟弱，疾病纏身，死亡的也不少。 31 如果我們先自我省察，就不會遭受審判了。 32 主審判我們，是對我們的管教，免得我們和世人一同被定罪。
33 因此，我的弟兄姊妹，當你們吃聖餐時，要彼此等候。 34 如果有人饑餓，可以在家中先吃，免得你們聚會的時候自招審判。至於其餘的事，等我到了以後再安排。
1 Corinthians 11
Worldwide English (New Testament)
11 Do as I do, for I am doing as Christ did.
2 You are doing well. You remember everything I told you. And you are doing what I taught you to do.
3 But I want you to know this. Christ is the head of every man. The husband is the head of the wife. And God is the head of Christ.
4 Any man who talks to God or speaks words from God with his head covered brings shame on his head.
5 But any woman who talks to God or speaks words from God with her head not covered brings shame on her head. She is just the same as a woman who has cut off all her hair.
6 If a woman does not cover her head, she might as well cut off her hair. But if it is a shame for a woman to cut off her hair, or to shave her head, then she should have her head covered.
7 A man does not need to cover his head because he was made like God is. Man is God's glory. Woman is man's glory.
8 Man was not made from woman, but woman was made from man.
9 And man was not made for woman, but woman was made for man.
10 She should show this by having her head covered, because of the angels.
11 But the Lord did not make woman without man, and he did not make man without woman.
12 As woman comes from man, so man is born by woman. And everything comes from God.
13 What do you think? Does it look right for a woman to talk to God in public with her head not covered?
14 It would be a shame for a man to have long hair. Everyone knows this.
15 But long hair is something for the woman to be proud of. Her hair has been given to her for a covering.
16 Does anyone still want to quarrel about this matter? This is what we do. And this is what the churches of God do also.
17 In the next thing I have to talk about, I cannot say that you are doing well. Your meeting together is more bad than good.
18 First, I hear that in the church meeting you divide yourselves into groups. I think this may be true.
19 You also have groups of people who do not think the same way. Because of them you will soon learn which people please God the most.
20 When you meet together, it is not the Lord's supper that you eat.
21 People take their own food and eat it without waiting. One gets nothing to eat. Another person drinks too much.
22 Do you not have your own homes where you can eat and drink? Do you have no respect for the church of God? Do you want to make poor people ashamed? What shall I say to you? Shall I say you are doing well? No, you are not doing well in this matter!
23 The Lord gave me what I taught you. This is what it was. On the night when the Lord Jesus was sold to his enemies, he took bread.
24 He thanked God for it. Then he broke it and said, `Take this bread and eat it. This is my body which is broken for you. Do this so that you will remember me.'
25 In the same way, after they had eaten, he took the cup. He said, `This cup is the new agreement made by my blood. Every time you drink from this cup, do it to remember me.'
26 Every time you eat this bread and drink from this cup you tell about the Lord's death, until he comes again.
27 So then, when anyone eats the bread and drinks from the cup in a way that is not right, he has done wrong to the body and blood of the Lord.
28 Each one must look into his own heart carefully. When he has done that, he may eat the bread and drink from the cup.
29 The person who eats and drinks in a wrong way will be punished. He does not take it as the Lord's body.
30 That is why many of you are weak and sick. Many have died.
31 But if we took time to look into our hearts first, then we would not be punished.
32 When we are punished, the Lord is teaching us to do right, so that we will not be punished with the rest of the people of the world.
33 So, my Christian brothers, when you come together to eat the Lord's supper, wait on your turn.
34 If a man is hungry, he should eat at home. Then when you meet, you will not be found in the wrong. There are other matters. I will talk about them when I come to see you.
1 Corinthians 11
King James Version
11 Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ.
2 Now I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all things, and keep the ordinances, as I delivered them to you.
3 But I would 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, having his head covered, dishonoureth his head.
5 But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven.
6 For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.
7 For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, forasmuch as 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 Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.
10 For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels.
11 Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man, in the Lord.
12 For as the woman is of the man, even so is the man also by the woman; but all things of God.
13 Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered?
14 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?
15 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering.
16 But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.
17 Now in this that I declare unto you I praise you not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse.
18 For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe it.
19 For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you.
20 When ye come together therefore into one place, this is not to eat the Lord's supper.
21 For in eating every one taketh before other his own supper: and one is hungry, and another is drunken.
22 What? have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the church of God, and shame them that have not? what shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I praise you not.
23 For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, that the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread:
24 And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.
25 After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, this cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.
26 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come.
27 Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.
28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.
29 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.
30 For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.
31 For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.
32 But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.
33 Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, tarry one for another.
34 And if any man hunger, let him eat at home; that ye come not together unto condemnation. And the rest will I set in order when I come.
