- 1. ¶ TAKE example by me, even as I also follow Christ.
- 2. Now I praise you, my brethren, that you remember me in all things and keep the ordinances as I delivered them to you.
- 3. But I would have you know that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the wife is her husband; and the head of Christ is God.
- 4. Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head.
- 5. And every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head; for she is equal to her whose head is shaven.
- 6. For if a woman does not cover her head, let her also cut off her hair; but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her cover her head.
- 7. For a man indeed ought not cover his head, because he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of the man.
- 8. For the man was not created from the woman; but the woman was created from the man.
- 9. Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.
- 10. For this reason the woman ought to be modest and cover her head as a mark of respect to the angels.
- 11. Nevertheless, in our Lord there is no preference between man and woman, neither between woman and man.
- 12. For as the woman is of the man, even so is the man also by the woman; but all things of God.
- 13. Judge for yourselves; is it comely for a woman to pray to God with uncovered head?
- 14. Does not even nature itself teach you that if a man have long hair, it is a disgrace to him?
- 15. But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her; for her hair is given her for a covering.
- 16. But if any man dispute these things, we have no precedent, neither has the church of God.
- 17. ¶ Now I give you these commands, not to praise you, for you have not made progress but have become worse.
- 18. First of all, when you gather in the church, I hear that there are divisions among you; and I partly believe it.
- 19. For controversies are bound to be among you, that those who are approved may be made manifest among you.
- 20. When you gather together therefore, you do not eat and drink as is appropriate on the day of our Lord.
- 21. But some men eat their supper before others; and so it happens that one is hungry and another is drunken.
- 22. Why? Have you not houses to eat and drink in? Or do you not respect the church of God, and want to shame those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you? No, for this, I cannot praise you.
- 23. ¶ For I myself received from our Lord that which I also delivered to you, That our Lord Jesus on that very night in which he was betrayed took bread;
- 24. And when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, Take, eat; this is my body, which is broken for you; this do in remembrance of me.
- 25. Likewise after supper, he gave also the cup and said, This cup is the new testament in my blood; do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.
- 26. For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you commemorate our Lord’s death until his coming.
- 27. Therefore whosoever shall eat of the Lord’s bread and drink of his cup unworthily shall be guilty of the blood and body of the Lord.
- 28. For this reason, let a man examine himself and eat of this bread and drink of this cup.
- 29. For he who eats and drinks unworthily eats and drinks to his condemnation; for he does not discern the Lord’s body.
- 30. This is the reason many are sick and weak among you, and many are dying.
- 31. For if we would judge ourselves, we would not be judged.
- 32. But when we are judged by our Lord, we are simply chastened, so that we may not be condemned with the world.
- 33. Hereafter, my brethren, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.
- 34. And if any man hunger, let him eat at home so that you may not come together unto condemnation. As to the rest of the things I will instruct you when I come.
