Now I praise you because you remember me in everything and hold firmly to the traditions, just as I handed them down to you.

Now I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all things, and keep the ordinances, as I delivered them to you.

But I want you to understand that Christ is the head of every man, and the man is the head of a woman, and God is the head of Christ.

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.

Every man who has something on his head while praying or prophesying disgraces his head.

Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoureth his head.

But every woman who has her head uncovered while praying or prophesying disgraces her head, for it is one and the same as the woman whose head is shaved.

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.

For if a woman does not cover her head, have her also cut her hair off; however, if it is disgraceful for a woman to have her hair cut off or her head shaved, have her cover her head.

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.

For a man should not have his head covered, since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man.

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.

For man does not originate from woman, but woman from man;

For the man is not of the woman: but the woman of the man.

for indeed man was not created for the woman's sake, but woman for the man's sake.

Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.

Therefore the woman should have a symbol of authority on her head, because of the angels.

For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels.
