^{4 Ref} Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoreth his head.

^{5 Ref} But every woman praying or prophesying with her head unveiled dishonoreth her head; for it is one and the same thing as if she were shaven.

^{6 Ref} For if a woman is not veiled, let her also be shorn: but if it is a shame to a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be veiled.

^{7 Ref} For a man indeed ought not to have his head veiled, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man.

^{8 Ref} For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man:

^{9 Ref} for neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man:

^{10 Ref} for this cause ought the woman to have `a sign of' authority on her head, because of the angels.

^{11 Ref} Nevertheless, neither is the woman without the man, nor the man without the woman, in the Lord.

^{12 Ref} For as the woman is of the man, so is the man also by the woman; but all things are of God.

^{13 Ref} Judge ye in yourselves: is it seemly that a woman pray unto God unveiled?

^{14 Ref} Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a dishonor 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.
