1 Corinthians 11:1-16
Roles in Worship

1 Be ye followers of me, even as I also [am] of Christ.

1:

2 Now I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all things, and keep the ordinances, as I delivered [them] to you.

2:

3 But 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.

3:

4 Every man praying or prophesying, having [his] head covered, dishonoureth his head.

4:

5 But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with [her] head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven.

5:

6 For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.

6:

7 For a man indeed ought not to cover [his] head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man.

7:

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

8:

9 Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.

9:

10 For this cause ought the woman to have power on [her] head because of the angels.

10:

11 Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man, in the Lord.

11:

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

12:

13 Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered?

13:

14 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?

14:

15 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for [her] hair is given her for a covering.

15:

16 But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.

16:
