First corinthians 11:1-34 LSV
[1] Become followers of me, as I also [am] of Christ. [2] And I praise you, brothers, that in all things you remember me, and according as I delivered to you, you keep the deliverances, [3] and I wish you to know that the Christ is the head of every man, and the head of a woman is the husband, and the head of Christ is God. [4] Every man praying or prophesying, having the head covered, dishonors his head, [5] and every woman praying or prophesying with the head uncovered, dishonors her own head, for it is one and the same thing with her being shaven, [6] for 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; [7] for 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, [8] for a man is not of a woman, but a woman [is] of a man, [9] for also was a man not created because of the woman, but a woman because of the man; [10] because of this the woman ought to have [a token of] authority on the head, because of the messengers; [11] but neither [is] a man apart from a woman, nor a woman apart from a man, in the LORD, [12] for as the woman [is] of the man, so also the man [is] through the woman, and all the things [are] of God. [13] Judge in your own selves: is it seemly for a woman to pray to God uncovered? [14] Does not even nature itself teach you, that if a man indeed has long hair, it is a dishonor to him? [15] And a woman, if she has long hair, it is a glory to her, because the hair has been given to her instead of a covering; [16] and if anyone thinks to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the assemblies of God. [17] And declaring this, I give no praise, because you do not come together for the better, but for the worse; [18] for first, indeed, coming together in an assembly, I hear of divisions being among you, and I partly believe [it], [19] for it is also necessary for sects to be among you, that those approved may become visible among you; [20] you, then, coming together at the same place—it is not to eat the LORD’s Dinner; [21] for each takes his own dinner before in the eating, and one is hungry, and another is drunk; [22] why, do you not have houses to eat and to drink in? Or do you despise the Assembly of God, and shame those not having? What may I say to you? Will I praise you in this? I do not praise! [23] For I received from the LORD that which I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus in the night in which He was delivered up, took bread, [24] and having given thanks, He broke, and said, “Take, eat, this is My body that is being broken for you; do this—to the remembrance of Me.” [25] In like manner also the cup after the supping, saying, “This cup is the New Covenant in My blood; do this, as often as you may drink [it]—to the remembrance of Me”; [26] for as often as you may eat this bread, and may drink this cup, you show forth the death of the LORD—until He may come; [27] so that whoever may eat this bread or may drink the cup of the LORD unworthily, he will be guilty of the body and blood of the LORD: [28] and let a man be proving himself, and so let him eat of the bread, and let him drink of the cup; [29] for he who is eating and drinking unworthily, he eats and drinks judgment to himself—not discerning the body of the LORD. [30] Because of this many [are] weak and sickly among you, and many sleep; [31] for if we were discerning ourselves, we would not be being judged, [32] and being judged by the LORD, we are disciplined, that we may not be condemned with the world; [33] so then, my brothers, coming together to eat, wait for one another; [34] and if anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, that you may not come together to judgment; and the rest, whenever I may come, I will arrange.
