1Co 11:1 Be imitators of me, as I am also of Christ.
1Co 11:2 But I praise you, brothers, that in all things you have remembered me, and even as I delivered them to you, you hold fast the doctrines.
1Co 11:3 But I want you to know that Christ is the head of every man, and the man is the head of a woman, and God is the head of Christ.
1Co 11:4 Every man praying or prophesying, having anything down over his head shames his head.
1Co 11:5 And every woman praying or prophesying with the head unveiled dishonors her head, for it is the same as being shaved.
1Co 11:6 For if a woman is not veiled, let her also be shorn. But if it is shameful for a woman to be shorn, or to be shaved, let her be veiled.
1Co 11:7 For truly a man ought not to have the head covered, being the image and glory of God. But woman is the glory of man;
1Co 11:8 for man is not of the woman, but woman of man;
1Co 11:9 for also man was not created for the sake of the woman, but woman for the sake of the man;
1Co 11:10 because of this, the woman ought to have authority on the head, because of the angels.
1Co 11:11 However, man is not apart from woman, nor woman apart from man, in the Lord.
1Co 11:12 For as the woman is out of the man, so also the man through the woman; but all things are from God.
1Co 11:13 You judge among yourselves: is it fitting for a woman to pray to God unveiled?
1Co 11:14 Or does not nature herself teach you that if a man indeed wears long hair, it is a dishonor to him?
1Co 11:15 But if a woman wears her hair long, it is a glory to her; because the hair has been given to her instead of a veil.
1Co 11:16 But if anyone thinks to be contentious, we do not have such a custom, nor the assemblies of God.
1Co 11:17 But enjoining this, I do not praise you, because you come together not for the better, but for the worse.
1Co 11:18 Indeed, first, I hear divisions to be among you when you come together in the assembly. And I believe it in some part.
1Co 11:19 For also heresies need to be among you, so that the approved ones may become revealed among you.
1Co 11:20 Then you coming together into one place, it is not to eat the Lord’s supper.
1Co 11:21 For each one takes his own supper first in the eating; and one is hungry, and another drunken.
1Co 11:22 For do you not have houses in which to eat and to drink? Or do you despise the assembly of God, and shame those who have not? What do I say to you? Shall I praise you for this? I do not praise.
1Co 11:23 For I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus in the night in which He was betrayed took bread;
1Co 11:24 and giving thanks, He broke and said, Take, eat; this is My body which is broken on behalf of you; this do in remembrance of Me.
1Co 11:25 In the same way the cup also, after supping, saying, This cup is the New Covenant in My blood; as often as you drink, do this in remembrance of Me. See Luke 22:19, 20
1Co 11:26 For as often as you may eat this bread, and drink this cup, you solemnly proclaim the death of the Lord, until He shall come.
1Co 11:27 So that whoever should eat this bread, or drink the cup of the Lord, unworthily, that one will be guilty of the body and of the blood of the Lord.
1Co 11:28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread, and let him drink of the cup;
1Co 11:29 for he eating and drinking unworthily eats and drinks judgment to himself, not discerning the body of the Lord.
1Co 11:30 For this reason many among you are weak and feeble, and many sleep.
1Co 11:31 For if we discerned ourselves, we would not be judged.
1Co 11:32 But being judged, we are corrected by the Lord, that we not be condemned with the world.
1Co 11:33 So that, my brothers, coming together to eat, wait for one another.
1Co 11:34 But if anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, that you may not come together for judgment. And the other things I will set in order whenever I come.
