1 Corinthians 11:5-15

But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoreth her head; for it is one and the same thing as if her head were shaved. For if a woman is not veiled, let her also be shorn; but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be veiled. For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of the man;read more.
for the man is not from the woman, but the woman from the man; and the man was not created for the woman, but the woman for the man. For this cause the woman ought to have a sign of authority on her head, because 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 from the man, so also is the man by the woman; but all things from God. Judge in your own selves; is it comely that a woman pray to God uncovered? Doth not even nature itself teach you, that if a man have long hair, it is a shame to him, but that if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her? for her hair is given for a covering.

Romans 4:7-8

"Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered. Blessed is the man whom the Lord shall not charge with sin."
