4Every man praying or prophesying, having [anything] on his head, puts his head to shame.

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

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

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.

5But every woman praying or prophesying with her head uncovered puts her own head to shame; for it is one and the same as a shaved [woman].

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 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.

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.

6For if a woman be not covered, let her hair also be cut off. But if [it be] shameful to a woman to have her hair cut off or to be shaved, let her be covered.

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.

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

8For man is not of woman, but woman of man.

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

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

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

9For also man was not created for the sake of the woman, but woman for the sake 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 power on her head because of the angels.

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

10Therefore ought the woman to have authority on her head, on account of the angels.

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

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

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