Likewise I want women to be adorned in modest clothing, with modesty and soundness of mind; not with braided hair, and gold or pearls or costly clothes; but that which becomes a woman professing godliness through good works.

Instead of the smell of perfume, there will be the smell of decay. They will wear ropes instead of belts. They will have baldheads instead of beautiful hair. They will wear sackcloth instead of expensive clothes. Their beauty will be scarred with brand marks.


But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head. She is the same as if she had her head shaved. For if the woman were not covered, let her also be shaved. But if it is a shame for a woman to have her head shaved, let her be covered.













In like manner, you wives, be in subjection to your own husbands. Even if your husband does not obey God's word, he may be won without a word by observing the way you live. Your husband could see your chaste behavior coupled with respect (reverence).

Now I praise you, brothers, because you remember me in all things, and carefully follow the teachings (precepts) (doctrine) just as I delivered them to you. I would have you know, that the head (authority) of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God. Every man who prays or prophesies having his head covered dishonors his head. read more.
But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head. She is the same as if she had her head shaved. For if the woman were not covered, let her also be shaved. But if it is a shame for a woman to have her head shaved, let her be covered. For a man should not cover his head, for he is the image and glory of God. But the woman is the glory of the man. For the man is not from the woman; but the woman is from the man. Neither was man created for woman but woman for man. That is why the woman should have a sign of authority on her head because of the angels. However in the Lord, both men and women exist together. Not one without the other. For as woman is from man, even so is man also from woman. But all things are from God! Judge in yourselves. Is it proper that women pray to God uncovered? Does not even nature itself teach you, that, if men have long hair, it is a shame? But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her for her hair is given her for a covering. If anyone is contentious about this we have no other practice, neither do the congregations of God.

I want the men in every place to pray, lifting up holy hands, without anger or argument. Likewise I want women to be adorned in modest clothing, with modesty and soundness of mind; not with braided hair, and gold or pearls or costly clothes; but that which becomes a woman professing godliness through good works. read more.
Let a woman learn in silence with all subjection.


Your appearance should not come from the outward adornment, things like braiding the hair, and wearing jewels of gold, or wearing fine apparel. Let your appearance be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible apparel of a meek and quiet spirit. This is of great value in the sight of God.

Likewise I want women to be adorned in modest clothing, with modesty and soundness of mind; not with braided hair, and gold or pearls or costly clothes; but that which becomes a woman professing godliness through good works.
