    6for if a woman is not covered -- then let her be shorn, and if `it is' a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven -- let her be covered;

    7for a man, indeed, ought not to cover the head, being the image and glory of God, and a woman is the glory of a man,

    8for a man is not of a woman, but a woman `is' of a man,

    9for a man also was not created because of the woman, but a woman because of the man;

    10because of this the woman ought to have `a token of' authority upon the head, because of the messengers;

    11but neither `is' a man apart from a woman, nor a woman apart from a man, in the Lord,

    12for as the woman `is' of the man, so also the man `is' through the woman, and the all things `are' of God.

    16and if any one doth think to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the assemblies of God.
