1 Corinthians 11:3

Concerning Head Coverings In Worship

² Now I am pleased to see that you keep me in memory in all things, and that you give attention to the teaching which was handed down from me to you. ³ But it is important for you to keep this fact in mind, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God. ⁴ Every man who takes part in prayer, or gives teaching as a prophet, with his head covered, puts shame on his head.
