1 Corinthians 11:2-10

New Matthew Bible

He rebukes them for abuse and for disorder concerning the sacrament of the body and blood of Christ, and brings them again to the first institution.

² I commend you, brethren, that you remember me in all things, and keep the observances even as I delivered them to you.

³ I would that you understood that Christ is the head of every man. And the man is the woman’s head. And God is Christ’s head.  ⁴ Every man praying or prophesying, having anything on his head, dishonours his head. ⁵ Every woman who prays or prophesies bare-headed dishonours her head, for it is one and the very same thing as if she were shaven. ⁶ If the woman is not covered, let her also be shorn. If it is dishonourable for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her cover her head. 

⁷ A man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God. 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’s sake, but the woman for the man’s sake. ¹⁰ For this reason, the woman ought to have a sign of authority on her head – for the angels’ sakes.
