About covering the head

1 Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ.
1 Corinthians 11: 1

2 I commend you, for you remember me in all things. You must faithfully follow the teachings I gave you.
1 Corinthians 11: 2

3 But I want you to understand this; Christ is the head of every human being. The head of a woman is a man. And the head of Christ is God.
1 Corinthians 11: 3

4 Whosoever prayeth or prophesieth with his head uncovered dishonoureth his head.
1 Corinthians 11: 4

5 But every woman should cover her head when she is praying or prophesying. If her head is not covered, then she brings shame on her head. Then there is no difference between her and the woman with the beard.
1 Corinthians 11: 5

6 If a woman does not cover her head, it is like cutting her hair. But it is a shame for a woman to cut her hair or shave her head. So he should cover his head.
1 Corinthians 11: 6

7 But a man must not cover his head. Why? Because he was created as God, and he is the glory of God.
1 Corinthians 11: 7

8 But woman is the glory of man. For the man did not come from the woman, but from the woman.
1 Corinthians 11: 8

9 Also, man was not made for woman, but woman was made for man.
1 Corinthians 11: 9

10 So a woman should cover her head to show that she is under authority. And he must do this for the angels.
1 Corinthians 11:10

11 But in the Lord, the woman is important to the man, and the man is important to the woman.
1 Corinthians 11:11

12 This is true because the woman is from the man, and the man is also from the woman. In fact, everything comes from God.
1 Corinthians 11:12

13 Decide for yourself; Is it lawful for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered?
1 Corinthians 11:13

14 Nature also teaches you that having long hair is a disgrace to man.
1 Corinthians 11:14

15 But having long hair is an honor for a woman. The woman is given long hair so that she can cover her head.
1 Corinthians 11:15

16 Some people may still want to argue about it. But we and the churches of God do not accept what these people are doing.
1 Corinthians 11:16
