New Testament in a Year
11 Be ye my followers, as [and] I am of Christ. [Be ye followers of me, as and I of Christ.]
2 And, brethren, I praise you, that by all things ye be mindful of me; and as I betook to you my commandments, ye hold [and as I betook to you my commandments, ye keep].
3 But I will that ye know, that Christ is [the] head of each man; but the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.
4 Each man praying, or prophesying, when his head is covered, defouleth his head.
5 But each woman praying, or prophesying, when her head is not covered, defouleth her head; for it is one, as if she were polled [as if she be made bald, polled, or clipped].
6 And if a woman be not covered [For if a woman be not veiled, or covered], be she polled; and if it is foul thing to a woman to be polled, or to be made bald, cover she her head.
7 But a man shall not cover his head, for he is the image and glory of God; but a woman is the glory of man.
8 For a man is not of the woman, but the woman of the man.
9 And the man is not made for the woman, but the woman for the man.
10 Therefore the woman shall have a covering on her head, also for angels.
11 Nevertheless neither the man is without the woman, neither the woman is without [the] man, in the Lord.
12 For why as the woman is of the man, so [and] the man is by the woman; but all things be of God.
13 Deem ye yourselves; beseemeth it a woman not covered on the head to pray to God? [Ye yourselves deem; becometh, or beseemeth, it a woman not veiled, or covered, to pray to God?]
14 Neither the nature itself teacheth us [that], for if a man nourish long hair, it is shame to him; [Neither the kind itself teacheth us that, for if a man nourish long hair, it is evil fame to him;]
15 but if a woman nourish long hair, it is glory to her, for hairs be given to her for covering.
16 But if any man is seen to be full of strife, we have none such custom, neither the church of God.
