But every woman that prays or prophesies with her head uncovered, dishonors her head: for it is one and the same as if she was shaved. For if a woman has no vail on, let her also be shaved. But if it is a shame to a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her have a vail.

But every woman that prays or prophesies with her head uncovered, dishonors her head: for it is one and the same as if she was shaved. For if a woman has no vail on, let her also be shaved. But if it is a shame to a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her have a vail. For a man ought not to vail his head, because he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of the man. For the man is not of the woman, but the woman of the man: for the man was not created for the woman, but the woman for the man. For this reason ought the woman to have a token of subjection on her head, on account of the angels. But neither is the woman without the man, nor the: man without the woman, in the Lord. For as the woman is of the man, so also is the man by the woman; but all things are of God. Judge in yourselves, whether it is becoming that a woman pray to God unvailed. Does not nature itself teach you, that, if a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him? But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her; for her hair is given to her for a vail. But if any one seems to be contentious, we have no such custom, nor have the churches of God.

Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.

Let not your adorning be that which is outward, which consists in plaiting the hair, and wearing gold, and putting on apparel: but let it be the hidden man of the heart, adorned with the incorruptible ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which, in the sight of God, is of great price.
