    1In the same way, you wives, be subject to your own husbands, so that if any do not obey the word, they may also be won without a word by the conduct of their wives;

    2While they observe your pure conduct with reverence.

    3Let your beauty not be the outward adornment of braiding hair, wearing gold, or putting on apparel;

    4But let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God.

    6Just as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord, whose daughters you are if you do good and are not afraid with any fear.

    7In the same way, you husbands, live with them with understanding, giving honor to the wife as to the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life, that your prayers may not be hindered.

    3But I want you to 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 who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head.

    5But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, for that is the same as if she were shaved.

    6For if a woman is not covered, let her be shorn; but if it is a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered.

    7For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, because he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of the man.

    8For the man is not from the woman, but the woman from the man.

    9Nor was the man created for the woman, but the woman for the man.

    10For this reason the woman ought to have authority on her head, because of the angels.

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

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

    13Judge for yourselves: is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered?
