For also the man was not created through the woman; but the woman through the man. Therefore the woman ought to have power upon the head for the angels.

For also the man was not created through the woman; but the woman through the man. Therefore the woman ought to have power upon the head for the angels. But neither the man without the woman, nor the woman without the man, in the Lord. For as the woman by the man, so also the man by the woman; and all things of God. Judge in yourselves: is it suitable for a woman to pray to God uncovered? Does not nature itself teach you, that, if a man truly have long hair, it is a dishonour to him? And if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for the hair has been given her for a cloak. And if any one seem to be loving strife, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.

And this I say according to indulgence, not according to order. For I will all men to be as also myself. But each has his own favor of God, the one truly thus, and the other thus.

She will rise while yet night, and she will give food to her house, and a portion to her girls. She purposed a field, and he will take it: from the fruit of her hands she planted a vineyard. She girded her loins with strength, and she will strengthen her arms. She tasted that her traffic is good: her light will not go out by night She sent forth her hands upon the spindle, and her hands take hold of the whirl. She spread forth her hands to the poor, and sent forth her hands to the needy. She will not fear for her house from snow, for all her house put on double. She made for herself coverings; byssus and purple her clothing. Her husband was known in the gates, in his sitting with the old men of the land. She made the under garment., and she will sell; and she gave a girdle to the Canaanite. Strength and ornament her clothing; and she will laugh to the last day. She opened her mouth in wisdom, and the law of mercy upon her tongue. She viewed the goings of her house, and the bread of sloth she will not eat Her sons rose up and they will call her happy; her husband, and he will praise her.

Ye shall give her from the fruit of her hands, and her works shall praise her in the gates.

So ought men to love their own wives as their own bodies. He loving his wife, loves himself. For none at any time hates his own flesh; but brings it up and cherishes it, as also the Lord the church: For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. For this a man shall leave his father and mother, and be joined to his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. This is a great mystery: but I speak to Christ and to the church. But ye also altogether, let each so love his own wife as himself: and the wife that she fear her husband.

For wisdom is good above pearls, and all delights shall not be made equal with her.

For thus said Jehovah, Behold me extending peace to her as a river, and as a torrent flowing to the glory of the nations: and ye sucked, ye shall be lifted upon the side, and ye shall be caressed Upon the knees. As a man whom his mother shall comfort him, so will I comfort you; and in Jerusalem ye shall be comforted.

For Jehovah the Most High is terrible; a great King over all the earth.

Jehovah, a man of war: Jehovah his name.

Chanting of David. Jehovah my shepherd, and I shall not want

But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy store-house, and having shut thy door, pray to thy Father which in secret; and thy Father who seeing in secret shall give back to thee openly.

And shall a son ask bread of any of you a father, will he give him a stone ? and if a fish, for a fish he will not give him a serpent. Or also if he ask an egg, he will not give him a scorpion. If then ye, being evil, know to give good gifts to your children; how much more the Father, be from heaven, will give the Holy Spirit to them asking him ?

Or what man is of you, which, if his son ask bread, he will not give him a stone? And if he ask a fish, he will not give him a serpent? If ye, therefore, being evil, know to give good gifts to your children how much more will your Father which is in the heavens give good things to those asking him?
