    3But 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.

    4Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoreth his head.

    5But 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.

    6For 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.

    7For 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.

    8For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man:

    9for neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man:

    10for this cause ought the woman to have [a sign of] authority on her head, because of the angels.

    11Nevertheless, neither is the woman without the man, nor the man without the woman, in the Lord.

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

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