1 Corinthians 11:2-10

Jubilee Bible 2000

² Now I praise you, brothers, that ye remember me in all things and retain my instructions the same as I spoke unto you.

³ But I would have you know that the head of every man is the 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, dishonours his head.

⁵ But every woman that prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonours her head, for that is even the same as if she were shaven.

⁶ For if the woman is not covered, let her also be shorn; but if it is 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 the woman ought to have authority over her head: because of the angels.
